  • This research sought to determine the optimal cycle of Planned Depot Maintenance (PDM) for Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV), and PDM through Reliability and Maintainability-based simulation and Operating and Support (O&S) cost analysis using Reliability and Maintainability analysis results. The effectiveness of the PDM was verified economically, and the optimal PDM interval that balances UAV effective operations and sustaining engineering costs was presented.
