Abstract(s)
Nas últimas décadas temos assistido a uma impressionante corrida por sistemas tecnologicamente avançados que incrementem o potencial das forças. Graças à facilidade de acesso, bem como aos preços relativamente acessíveis, tem levado a uma presença significativa no campo de batalha, o que altera o paradigma do campo de batalha convencional. Atualmente verifica-se uma proliferação de sistemas não tripulados, onde o vetor aéreo tem tido maior impacto, fruto da maturidade do emprego destes sistemas. Contudo, com a invasão da Rússia à Ucrânia em 2022, também os vetores terrestre e naval têm sido alvo de uma forte evolução. Com o emprego de sistemas terrestres não tripulados no campo de batalha tem sido possível identificar algumas limitações, no entanto, os dados recolhidos levam a acreditar que o futuro das operações militares terrestres poderá apoiar-se nesta tipologia de sistemas.
O objetivo da presente investigação é analisar o possível contributo dos Sistemas Terrestres Não Tripulados nas Unidades de Reconhecimento, sendo para isso identificadas as possibilidades e limitações dos atuais sistemas, bem como as tarefas táticas que o Grupo de Reconhecimento executa em operações de segurança. Assim, pretende-se analisar como podem estes sistemas contribuir para o aumento da capacidade operacional desta tipologia de força. Posteriormente foram identificados os requisitos operacionais que os Sistemas Terrestres Não Tripulados devem possuir de forma a integrarem uma unidade de reconhecimento.
Para atingir o objetivo supracitado adotámos um raciocínio indutivo, apoiado numa estratégia de investigação qualitativa. O trabalho de campo assentou na realização de entrevistas semiestruturadas.
Atendendo aos dados recolhidos, concluímos que o atual estado da arte dos Sistemas Terrestres Não Tripulados permite incrementar o potencial do Grupo de Reconhecimento através do aumento do alcance operacional bem como da capacidade de sobrevivência e proteção da força. A modularidade deste sistema permite apoiar o Grupo de Reconhecimento em grande parte das tarefas, aumentando assim a eficácia e precisão das informações recolhidas. Embora existam ainda algumas limitações, conclui-se que o seu emprego nas unidades de reconhecimento poderá constituir-se uma mais-valia.
In recent decades we have seen an impressive race for technologically advanced systems that increase the potential of forces. Thanks to ease of access and relatively affordable prices, this has led to a significant presence on the battlefield, changing the paradigm of the conventional battlefield. There is currently a proliferation of unmanned systems, where the air vector has had the greatest impact, as a result of the maturity of the use of these systems. However, with Russia's invasion of Ukraine in 2022, the land and naval vectors have also undergone a strong evolution. With the use of unmanned ground systems on the battlefield, it has been possible to identify some limitations, however, the data collected leads us to believe that the future of military ground operations could be based on this type of system. The aim of this research is to analyse the possible contribution of Unmanned Ground Systems in Reconnaissance Units, identifying the possibilities and limitations of current systems, as well as the tactical tasks that the Reconnaissance Group performs in security operations. The aim is to analyse how these systems can contribute to increasing the operational capacity of this type of force. Subsequently, the operational requirements that Unmanned Ground Systems must have in order to be part of a reconnaissance unit were identified. In order to achieve the aforementioned objective, we adopted inductive reasoning, with a qualitative research strategy. The fieldwork was based on semi-structured interviews. Based on the data collected, we conclude that the current state of the art in Unmanned Ground Systems makes it possible to increase the Reconnaissance Group's potential by increasing the operational range as well as the survival and protection of the force. The modularity of this system makes it possible to support the Reconnaissance Group in most of its tasks, thus increasing the effectiveness and accuracy of the information gathered. Although there are still some limitations, it is concluded that its use in reconnaissance units will be an asset.
