This paper examines the safety implications and factors to be considered for the procurement of a UAV and identifies the design requirements to be used as a guide to produce an air vehicle specification. It will touch on matters covered in more detail by other presenters because of the need to reflect the information they provide within the new standard. It should be noted that while appreciating that dirigibles and micro UAV's will be introduced in the future, it was agreed that the current UK Defence Standard 00-970 should comply with current policy agreed within the United Kingdom (UK) Ministry of Defence (MoD), and that by the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA), which is, that UAV Systems under 2Okgs should be treated as models and as such do not need to comply with the regulations governing aircraft. This paper also identifies the role of the 'Airworthiness, Design Requirements and Procedures (ADRP) organisation' of the UK MoD Defence Procurement Agency (DPA) and details the work being carried out in developing a set of general design and airworthiness requirements for UAV systems. ADRP are part of the new Defence Procurement Agency (DPA). which was formed on the 1st of April 1999, to take forward the 'SMART' Procurement initiative, which aims to use faster, cheaper and better ways of equipping the UK armed forces. This involves Integrated Project Teams (IPT) managing the programmes throughout the life of the equipment. This paper discusses the current and future UAV Systems requirements and gives a brief insight into the strategy adopted to produce a set of regulatory documents and procedures for the guidance of the MoD Integrated Project Team leader (IPT/L).
