Embodiments of a system for recovery of a target aircraft by a host aircraft, the system including a towline having a proximal section configured to be coupled with the host aircraft and a distal section configured to be paid out from the host aircraft, a fitting coupled with the distal section of the towline, wherein the fitting comprises a housing, a global navigation satellite system receiver (e.g., without limitation, a GPS receiver), and a global navigation satellite system antenna. In some embodiments, when paid out from the host aircraft, the towline is configured to be in a substantially vertical orientation. The system of some embodiments can further include a capture mechanism configured to be coupled with a fuselage of the target aircraft and configured to capture the fitting

An aerial vehicle system is comprised of a detector, a signal generator, and a transmitter. The detector is configured to detect a presence of a target unmanned aerial vehicle within a range of the aerial vehicle system. The signal generator is configured to generate a communication disruption signal. The transmitter is configured to trigger a transmission of the communication disruption signal based in part on the detected presence of the target unmanned aerial vehicle.

A driving device includes a frame, a screw-nut system comprising a threaded rod and a first nut helicoidally connected to the threaded rod, the threaded rod being connected to the frame by a pivot connection that allows the threaded rod to rotate with respect to the frame about a longitudinal axis of the threaded rod, a first position sensor making it possible to detect a limit position of the first nut along the longitudinal axis, the first position sensor comprising a first part and a second part, the first position sensor being sensitive to a variation in a distance between the first part and the second part of the first position sensor along the axis, the first part being fixed to the first nut and the second part being connected to the threaded rod without passing via the pivot connection and in such a way that rotation of the threaded rod about the longitudinal axis leads to a variation in the distance between the first part and the second part of the first position sensor along the longitudinal axis.

A deployable device mountable on a carrier vehicle and configured to collect situation awareness data. The deployable device includes at least one recorder device configured to collect situation awareness data. The deployable device is capable of being ejected from the carrier vehicle and can be configured to operate as a vehicle and/or be towed by the carrier vehicle. The deployable device can continue collection of situation awareness data after being ejected.

A server apparatus includes a communication unit, and a control unit configured to send an instruction for causing flight vehicles to perform a flight operation, to the flight vehicles. The flight operation includes energizing, by a first flight vehicle, a penetration tool toward a target object in a space, holding a first part, penetrated through the target object, and a second part, not penetrated through the target object, of a cord-shaped member attached to the penetration tool, and flying to outside the space, waiting, by a second flight vehicle, outside the space and receiving any one of the first and second parts from the first flight vehicle, and towing, by the first and second flight vehicles, the target object with the cord-shaped member and transporting the target object to outside the space by flying while respectively holding any one and the other of the first and second parts.
