An Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) is an aircraft that does not have a pilot and passenger and is used in military and civilian activities. UAVs can be managed with autonomous or remote-control systems. It is used for observation and tactical planning in missions such as image processing, scanning, and destruction, especially in military areas. Recently, they have been widely used in military operations within the framework of national security. The fact that UAVs are architecturally composed of intelligent electronic systems and artificial intelligence-based software poses cyber threats. In this study, the resilience of UAVs against cyber-attacks and their potential threats in the airspace were assessed. To analyze potential risks and the current situation, Distributed Denial of Service (DDOS), De-authentication, Jamming, Sniffing, Coding, and Man-in-the-middle (MITM) attack surfaces were examined in UAV network architectures. As a result of the tests performed on the discovered attack matrices, assessments were made to increase the level of potential resilience and prevent potential threats.
