At the same time the climatic consequences that Ukraine will face will not be so critical for population incubation, as, for example, in Africa and East Asia. In these regions, the catastrophic decline in drinking water and fertile land will stimulate migration to new territories for survival. Climate refugees, according to the authors, will become one of the main challenges to the national and food security of Ukraine and the European region.","PeriodicalId":304895,"journal":{"name":"Challenges to national defence in contemporary geopolitical situation","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129032996","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The main requirement is to achieve the rocket target with horizontal distance (range) of 20 km and vertical distance (altitude) of 10 km. The rocket motor to be used should be RM-12K designed and built by the Kaunas University of Technology, Institute of Defence technology. This motor can produce up to 12 kN thrust for 3.2 seconds. To achieve the goal, a computational model is designed and numerical modelling for ballistic analysis is carried out. In this research, two different configurations are used to achieve the requirement. In the first test, all four motors are ignited together for 3.2 seconds which produce 48 kN thrust force. In third configuration two motors are used for 3.2 seconds to produce 24 kN and after the burnout, the second two motor is ignited for 3.2 seconds. Comparative analysis of two different configuration shows that the requirement of 20 km range and 10 km altitude was realised by using two plus two motors for 6.4 seconds of operational time.","PeriodicalId":304895,"journal":{"name":"Challenges to national defence in contemporary geopolitical situation","volume":"53 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117086210","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Every army in a NATO country strives to set up a military camp that is as flexible and comfortable as possible. NATO has set standards for the installation of a military field camp, and each country in the organization relies on this standard. This study was focused on how to build a military field camp as quickly as possible and to minimize the loss of various resources. The research developed a focus group survey analysis method to identify weaknesses in the military field camp setting process, accomplished an in-depth interview analysis method with four Lithuanian Grand Duke Vytenis General Support Logistics Battalion Field Camp Installation Experts. Moreover, was accomplished a comparative analysis to compare military field camps plans before and after installation. In addition, an operational process analysis approach was used, which depicts the installation of a military field camp from planning to unit deployment. There was used the Bizagi Modeler v3.7 software to construct the intelligent process automation diagram which showed the military camp installation improvement solutions [18]. Moreover, the in-deep cause analysis method was used, which helped to identify the main problems of the military field camp installation.","PeriodicalId":304895,"journal":{"name":"Challenges to national defence in contemporary geopolitical situation","volume":"258 3","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131519682","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Adámková","doi":"10.47459/cndcgs.2020.17","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.47459/cndcgs.2020.17","url":null,"abstract":"The human factor is a source of errors that arises not only in airports activities but also in the process of internal and external communication. The hybrid campaign consists of a spectrum of classic tools, called DIMEFIL, which affect the dimensions of power in seven areas (diplomacy / politics, information, armed forces, economics, finance, intelligence, public order and the rule of law) [1]. Hybrid threats are a complex and multidimensional threat caused by the convergence and interconnection of various elements of social life [2]. The hybrid threat aim is to weaken mutual ties and conduct different types of espionage. Espionage can be part of the attack preparation, mostly in a latent form, or to get information security technological progress. Determining the level of cyber security requires investigating phenomena and activities that could pose real or potential threats to the internal and external communications of critical infrastructure [3, 4]. Security of critical infrastructure is important not only in aviation but also in other industries such as metallurgy. This is mainly due to environmental protection and the possibility of an ecological disaster [5]. Modern society is not only connected by computer networks, but we are increasingly dependent on technical infrastructure. The interconnectedness of the infrastructure systems creates a dependency where the failure of one infrastructure subject affects the functionality of other infrastructure elements [6]. Mutual multilevel infrastructure systems interconnection is a modern society development basic prerequisite. Assessing the level of infrastructure vulnerability is directed in two ways, technical and human failure. The authors analyzed aerospace technical infrastructure inter-connectivity and an internal communication vulnerability. The authors analyzed the elements of an inter-connectivity level protection of aerospace technical infrastructure and internal communication vulnerability. The authors concluded that by reducing the disconnection point’s number and splitting internal ways, they are a possible solution to cut the penetration possibility into the internal network of air transport entities. The results of the research show that interdependent systems should have internal systems divided into open systems for outdoor and indoor access, with no external access. Protection against intrusion is the first phase and requires the firewalls and antivirus programs implementation in the critical infrastructure network. The monitoring systems implementation is the most suitable solution to protect against data leaks, which is the most risky area, by employees and visitors. An aircraft monitoring system gains, monitors, process, and records aircraft system condition (characteristics) and failures [7]. The authors believe that the ongoing use of penetration tests [8] based on a simulated hacker attack is a proper method of verifying the level of cyber security.","PeriodicalId":304895,"journal":{"name":"Challenges to national defence in contemporary geopolitical situation","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130206871","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since the information war has been going on against Ukraine for a long time, the instruments of influence on the consciousness of the population are constantly changing and the forms and methods of information dissemination are being improved, we decided to investigate the literary sources created during the Anti-terrorist Operation / Joint Forces Operation (further - ATO/JFO) period in order to highlight the trends of opinion formation. We used content analysis methods as a basis. The analyzed source base confirmed the thesis that fake and post-truth are artificially created and manipulative-imitation technologies that Putinists use for hybrid warfare. By imposing the post-truth era on the international community, the Kremlin regime creates a reality where emotions are dominated by facts. Thus, Russia’s information strategy is based solely on the needs of the lower order.","PeriodicalId":304895,"journal":{"name":"Challenges to national defence in contemporary geopolitical situation","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122962143","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
