Recently, unmanned aviation has been rapidly developing. The development of unmanned aerial systems based on unmanned aerial vehicles is currently carried out by almost all industrialized countries of the world. Until recently, UAVs had a military purpose, now the use of UAVs is effective both in military and civilian tasks, for example, in combating the consequences of emergencies, natural disasters, agricultural applications, reconnaissance and aerial photography. The impetus for the development of unmanned aviation worldwide was the need for light, relatively cheap aircraft with high maneuverability characteristics and capable of performing a wide range of tasks. Unmanned aerial vehicles are successfully used in military operations around the world, and at the same time they successfully perform civilian tasks. Today, most of the existing unmanned aerial vehicles are piloted manually, using remote controls operating on radio channels. When manually piloting Unmanned aerial vehicles, there are difficulties associated with pilot training, insufficient operating range, and weather restrictions. UAV control is the task of a well-trained professional. For example, in the U.S. Army, UAV operators become active duty Air Force pilots after a year of preparation and training. In many aspects, it is more difficult than piloting an aircraft and, as is known, most accidents of unmanned aircraft are due to pilot-operator errors and mechanical failures. According to the official data provided for 2012, 70 unmanned aircraft crashed in the US Air Force.
