Commercial Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are purpose-built vehicles that are tailored to the intended applications and use cases. As the use cases for UAVs continue to grow, so do the needs for new, bespoke vehicle designs. This is especially true in the use of UAVs for high-speed reconnaissance and surveillance where speed and agility must be balanced with reliability, efficiency and environmental impact. To meet the specific performance requirements, the novel UAV designs ultimately revolve around the selection and integration of the propulsion system, while considering aerothermal heating effects and control systems. The current research program seeks develop an integrated framework for the design of a novel class of hypersonic UAVs. This work will help UVAD develop and commercialize the first, designed-in-Canada hypersonic UAV to compete on the global market.

商用无人机(UAV)是专门为预期的应用和用例量身定做的车辆。随着无人机的使用案例持续增长，对新的定制车辆设计的需求也在不断增长。在使用无人机进行高速侦察和监视时尤其如此，在这种情况下，速度和灵活性必须与可靠性、效率和环境影响相平衡。为了满足特定的性能要求，新型无人机的设计最终围绕着推进系统的选择和集成，同时考虑了气动加热效应和控制系统。目前的研究计划旨在为一种新型高超声速无人机的设计开发一个综合框架。这项工作将帮助UVAD开发第一架加拿大设计的高超声速无人机并将其商业化，以在全球市场上竞争。
