Optimizing Video Capture and Storage for Deployed Aircraft

Optimizing Video Capture and Storage for Deployed Aircraft

Modern military aircraft are equipped with sophisticated camera systems that capture high-resolution, full-motion videos from the battlefield. This video data is crucial for real-time observation by onboard or remote pilots, enabling them to make informed decisions and respond swiftly to changing situations. Additionally, video data captured by deployed platforms provides valuable insights during post-mission analysis. These camera systems are deployed on manned and unmanned aircraft, playing a vital role in military missions. The video data captured by these camera systems is highly sensitive and must be protected from unauthorized access.

This paper focuses on the secure recording and storage of video data captured by camera systems in deployed military aircraft. While not delving into the intricacies of these systems, it draws upon publicly available information to discuss video storage considerations. It highlights the need for compression to conserve bandwidth and storage space and the role of network attached storage (NAS) devices in securely storing and transmitting video data.
