RPV stands for Remotely Piloted Vehicle, also known as a drone. It is a type of unmanned aircraft that is controlled by a pilot on the ground using a remote control or computer system. RPVs are used for a variety of purposes, including military operations, surveillance, and scientific research. They are equipped with cameras, sensors, and other technology to gather information and perform tasks without the need for a human pilot on board. RPVs have become increasingly popular in recent years due to their versatility and cost-effectiveness, but they also raise ethical and safety concerns.
