This paper analyzes the state of the art on the non-lethal disabling technologies(NDTs) and provides the direction for the development and use of non-lethal weapons. A dozen categories of NDTs are surveyed and explored for the prospective military operations in the future. These technologies may be mixed and matched for a specific purpose that would be potent yet safer than conventional lethal weapons. Many commonly available technologies that are either directly applicable as NDTs or with some engineering adaptation should be first considered to develope. These are NDTs for anti-mobility as follows: anti-traction technology, polymer agents and combustion alternation technology. Non-lethal weapons especially useful in our situation include destroying weapon-guidance systems, disabling engines of aircrafts and ground vehicles and C4I systems.

본 연구에서는 불법 조업 어선 제압 및 장비 불용화를 위한 접착형 퇴치제 개발의 일환으로 발포형 생분해성 폴리우레탄 연구를 수행하였다. 발포형 폴리우레탄 접착제는 폴리에스터계 및 폴리에테르 폴리올을 포함하는 주재와 고분자형의 이소시아네이트로 이루어진 경화제를 혼합하여 반응이 완결되는 2액형으로, 단기간의 생분해성을 위해 주재에 starch와 dextrin 및 amylase 등을 첨가하여 4주간 약 34%의 생분해도를 OECD 301C법에 의해 얻을 수 있었다. 주재와 경화제의 온도에 따른 점도를 $0{\sim}50^{\circ}C$의 온도범위에서 측정하여 혼합 시 참고할 수 있도록 하였으며, 또한 신속한 발포 및 접착성능을 위해서 $0{\sim}50^{\circ}C$의 온도 범위에서 발포형 폴리우레탄 접착제의 반응 완결 속도(rising time)를 조절하여 1 min 내외로 제어하였다. 또한 면 직물에 대한 T-peel 시험을 수행한 결과 최대 20.78 N/cm, 평균 11.95 N/cm의 접착력을 얻을 수 있었다.

목표 대상을 치명적이거나 파괴하지 않고 제압할 수 있는 무기를 비살상무기라 하며, 그중 고섬광발생장치는 강한 섬광으로 적의 광학센서를 무력화시키거나 시력을 일시적으로 마비시키는 무기체계이다. 본 연구에서는 고폭화약에 의한 충격파로 인해 발생한 플라즈마를 이용한 폭발형 고섬광발생장치의 형상에 대한 설계 방안을 도출하여 시료를 제작하고 광학센서를 사용한 기초시험을 수행하였다. 또한, 시험결과를 분석하여 설계 변수에 따른 고섬광 효과를 최대화시키는 방안을 도출하고자 한다. 충전가스 종류로 아르곤보다 제논의 경우 2배 가량 광도가 높게 나타났으며, 비활성가스가 광도에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위한 비교로써 공기보다 제논의 경우 4배 가량 광도가 높게 나타났다. 또한, 화약량이 증가할수록 원주방향으로 전달되는 충격파가 도달할 수 있는 단면적이 증가할수록 광도가 증가함을 알 수 있었으며, 단일기폭보다 이중기폭의 경우 광원이 2배가 되어 광도도 2배됨을 입증하였다.

In weapon systems development, live fire tests have been frequently adopted to evaluate the performance of the systems under development. Therefore, it is necessary to ensure safety in the test ranges where the live fire tests can cause serious hazards. During the tests, a special care must be taken to protect the test and evaluation (T&E) personnel and also test assets from potential danger and hazards. Thus, the development and management of the range safety process is quite important in the tests of guided missiles and artillery considering the explosive power of the destruction. Note also that with a newly evolving era of weapon systems such as laser, EMP and non-lethal weapons, the test procedure for such systems is very complex. Therefore, keeping the safety level in the test ranges is getting more difficult due to the increased unpredictability for unknown hazards. The objective of this paper is to study on how to enhance the safety in the test ranges. To do so, an approach is proposed based on model-based systems engineering (MBSE). Specifically, a functional architecture is derived utilizing the MBSE method for the design of the range safety process under the condition that the derived architecture must satisfy both the complex test situation and the safety requirements. The architecture developed in the paper has also been investigated by simulation using a computer-aided systems engineering tool. The systematic application of this study in weapon live tests is expected to reduce unexpected hazards and test design time. Our approach is intended to be a trial to get closer to the recent theme in T&E community, "Testing at the speed of stakeholder's need and rapid requirement for rapid acquisition."

An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) is a powered aerial vehicle that does not carry a human operator, uses aerodynamic forces to provide vehicle lift, can fly autonomously or be piloted remotely, can be expendable or recoverable, and can carry a lethal or non-lethal payload. An UAV is very important weapon system and is currently being employed in many military missions (surveillance, reconnaissance, communication relay, targeting, strike, etc.) in the war. To accomplish UAV's missions, guarantee of survivability should be preceded. The main objective of this study is a local path planning to maximize survivability for UAV on the battlefield of dynamic threats (obstacles, surface-to-air missiles, radar etc.). A local path planning is capable of producing a new path in response to environmental changes. This study suggests a $Smart$ $A^*$ (Smart A-star) algorithm for local path planning. The local path planned by $Smart$ $A^*$ algorithm is compared with the results of existing algorithms ($A^*$ $Replanner$, $D^*$) and evaluated performance of $Smart$ $A^*$ algorithm. The result of suggested algorithm gives the better solutions when compared with existing algorithms.
