dc.description.abstract	Many frameworks have emerged as a valuable communication protocol for lightweight, interoperable data exchange between distributedplatforms and control stations. However, some of these frameworks was that a broker-centric architecture poses significant risks when applied to military-grade deployments where reliability, security, and operational continuity are non-negotiable. This study analyses the vulnerabilities of frameworks with a single point off ailure, such as those based on Message Queuing Telemetry Transport(MQTT) in military contexts, and proposes a decentralised architecture that integrates hierarchical blockchain layers secured by zero-knowledge Scalable Transparent Arguments of Knowl edge(zk-STARK)proofs. The approach aims to enhance survivability, auditability, and trust in UxV communication networks, offering a foundation for next-generation secures warm coordination across multi-domain operations.	eng
