This book investigates Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) with a payload capacity of one metric ton for transportation, focusing on methods for approval and certification, such as the Specific Operations Risk Assessment (SORA). It proposes measures to reduce operational risks, including aircraft and system design, safe autonomy, and airspace integration. Results from simulations and technology demonstrations are presented as a proof-of-concept.

This comprehensive book delves into the realm of Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) designed to transport cargo weighing one metric ton. Authored by experts, it offers a diverse range of perspectives, encompassing economics, technical implementation, and regulatory considerations. The book specifically focuses on heavy-lift cargo UAS, examining the impact of recently established approval and certification methods, which are predicted to revolutionize the field of unmanned aviation.
The authors examine the Specific Operations Risk Assessment (SORA) and its implications for technological solutions and operational concepts. The study begins with the assumption of operations in sparsely populated areas and below common air traffic, proposing various measures to mitigate operational risks. These include advanced air traffic control systems, autonomous flight capabilities, and seamless integration with airspace and data links.
The book presents detailed analysis of aircraft and system design, emphasizing safety and autonomy. It explores the integration of UAS into existing logistics systems and showcases the potential benefits through simulations and technology demonstrations. The authors aim to provide a solid foundation for developing innovative solutions in the field of heavy-lift cargo UAS transportation.
