Use cases

Relay from above

A drone holding position over a team can observe and relay at the same time. Why the loiter use case needs identification as much as a link.

On station, a drone becomes part of the network: it watches the ground and carries data between units that cannot reach each other directly.

Drones rotate out for battery exchange while the coverage stays up, so the relay does not depend on a single aircraft.

Friend or foe, from the air

Before it relays anything, the drone knows which units below are friendly and how far away they are.
