Determining the indicators of the command-and-control system of UAVs in electronic warfare operations

Today, the importance and effectiveness of using UAVs in all kinds of military and civilian operations, including in electronic warfare operations, is not hidden from anyone. Command and control system according to the capabilities and limitations of forest drones is one of the basic requirements in the effective and successful use of military drones in this type of operation, therefore, the calculation of the criteria and indicators of command, control and communication of drones in electronic warfare operations is of great importance.This research is applied-developmental type and descriptive method and with a mixed approach (qualitative/quantitative) and in order to investigate the basic factors and validation, 7 experts were selected in a purposeful way and to complete the questionnaires, out of 90 people A simple stratified random sampling method of 81 people was selected. In this research, firstly, the information collected from sources, documents and documents was arranged in the form of research variables and relevant components, and its overlap with the opinions of experts regarding indicators and components was analyzed (content analysis) and the dispersion of opinions The experts converged with the analysis of the sources. After that, quantitative data were analyzed using cluster analysis using SPS software. S22 was done and finally both groups were analyzed in a mixed manner. In this way, with cluster analysis, it has introduced and prioritized the indicators of the command-and-control system for the use of drones in electronic warfare operations in the form of 6 indicators.
