Abstract: Nowadays, UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) are used in a wide range of areas. Particularly, the priority task of the UAV used in various tasks in different military operational environments has been intelligence, reconnaissance and surveillance (ISR). From gun loaded operative UAVs which are able to be flown 30,000 ft in altitude to basic UAVs that can be flown by hand, all UAVs? common feature is to transfer the momentary tactical picture related to the hostile operational environment to their command and control centers. This study initially examines surface combatants secrecy necessity, especially during crises and wartime, in an operation environment. Later, it presents a number of proposals for developing new generation weapon systems, in order to neutralize hostile UAVs without spending SAMs when warships detect an enemy UAV, which can send information about their position and formation.
