Abstract

ABSTRACT

In the last decade Unmanned
Aerial Vehicles have become more visible with technological improvements, the public recagnition has increased with the mounted arms on vehicles.
However, the technological development of the vehicle has necessitated a
multi-decision mechanism in its use-unlike human-on-board aircraft. For this
reason, in the use of the unmanned aerial vehicle, subjects requiring solution
have emerged; in terms of who will be and what extent be authorized and
responsible from the vehicle itself to the operator, from the responsible
commander to the political decision maker. In this context the aim of study is
to determine the decision mechanisms for the use of vehicles and to make
recommendations on the responsibilities of decision makers.

SİLAHLI İNSANSIZ HAVA ARAÇLARININ KULLANIMINDA KARAR MEKANİZMALARI

Abstract

ÖZ

 

      İnsansız Hava Araçları son on yılda
teknolojik gelişmelerle birlikte daha çok görünür olmuş, araçlara silah monte
edilmesi ile birlikte kamuoyu tarafından bilinirliği artmıştır. Ancak aracın
teknolojik gelişmişliği, -insanlı uçaklardan farklı olarak- kullanımında çoklu
karar mekanizmasını da gerekli kılmıştır. Bu nedenle silahlı insansız hava
aracı kullanımında aracın kendisinden operatörüne, sorumlu komutanından politik
karar alıcısına kadar kimlerin ne ölçüde yetkili ve sorumlu olacağı hususu
çözüm gerektiren konular olarak ortaya çıkmıştır. Bu kapsamda çalışmanın amacı,
araçların kullanımına ilişkin karar mekanizmalarını belirlemek ve karar
vericilerin sorumluluklarına yönelik öneriler getirmektedir..
