The study focuses on Medium Altitude Long Endurance (MALE) and High Altitude Long Endurance (HALE) RPAS. It outlines a vision of possible future conflict scenarios and compares these predicted threats with current capabilities. Therefore, this study provides a detailed assessment of current RPAS components’ limitations and vulnerabilities, addressing operational, technical and legal questions.
Based on the assumption that in the future, NATO will be forced to deal with something other than an inferior or outgunned enemy, adversaries will have the capability and intent to oppose or disrupt NATO air operations and will represent a serious threat to Allied RPAS assets. In contrast to ground and manned aviation operations, recent RPAS missions have been conducted in a permissive air environment only, where Allied forces did not anticipate vigorous enemy Air Defence assets. This research paper will articulate that shifting PNG’s and other Pacific Island nations’ energy reliance from fossil fuels and other non-renewable sources to renewable green and environmentally sustainable sources is not only achievable, but feasible within a reasonable time. This paper estimates that there is sufficient renewable energy in PNG and advocates that these available green energy sources should be tapped, for they can go a long way in the quest for climate change mitigation.
From the outcome of our recently concluded SERI 2018 Renewable Energy conference, we assembled into a single hypothetical ‘energy basket’ all the varied renewable ‘green’ energy sources within PNG (as estimated by our energy research groups). The role of renewable energy sources in the recent PNG National Energy Policy covering 2018 to 2050 (unveiled at the 2018 March Energy Summit in Port Moresby by the PNG Minister of Energy) was also analysed.
In this study, the authors carried out a detailed analysis of the technologies required for successful implementation of a sustainable renewable energy household power supply in Papua New Guinea or PNG (PNG is a Pacific Island nation, North of Australia) to free the country from fossil fuel dependency.
