Small Unmanned Aircraft System
What does the acronym sUAS stand for? Small Unmanned Aerial System Small Unmanned Aircraft System Small Unmanned Airborne System Small Unidentified Aircraft System
Indirect attack has the likelihood of returning to home
What is the difference between direct and indirect attack? Indirect attack has the likelihood of returning to home Direct attack is the only one that carries munitions Indirect attack has the likelihood that the sUAS will be destroyed during the attack Direct Attack is used to guide, observe, spot, and/or adjust fire
