摘要：The Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) is more and more widely used in modern warfare, and its problem of support mode is becoming more and more prominent. The support mode of UAS refers to the standard mode to ensure the operation and maintenance of UAS which mainly composed of maintenance level, organization structure and contractor logistical support system. In most cases the support mode of UAS draws lesson from manned vehicles’. For the research and application of support model of UAS is relatively lagging, for example, the division of maintenance level is not clear; the allocation of support resources is redundant; military force lacks maintenance support capability; logistical support professional setting is not reasonable; the contractor logistics support system is not normative. So, there is no a set of effective, reasonable and normative support mode to support the operation and maintenance of UAS, resulting in the operational readiness of UAS is not high and maintenance process wastes a lot of manpower and material and money, which greatly restricts the operation and development of UAS. Combined with the UAS support requirements and features under the military trade, this paper analyses the status of the redundant and inefficient support mode. Aiming at these problem, a new support model of UAS will be researched from three aspects including the allocation of maintenance level, the adjustment of military maintenance organization structure, and the establishment of contractor logistical support system. By applying the new support mode to user, the operation and support of UAS will be more effective and reasonable which will greatly promote the development of UAS.
