Unmanned aerial vehicles represent an indispensable segment in the range of weapons of both military and police units. The expansion in development of unmanned aerial vehicles for both commercial and military purposes has created a need for constant improvement of drones and anti-drone means. A wide range of possibilities opens up a wide range of uses for them. The paper presents the choice of an unmanned aerial vehicle as an important combat system for the needs of tactical units of the army and police. The complexity of the problem is conditioned by various tactical - technical and economic characteristics of unmanned aerial vehicles, it has conditioned the use of different methods of multicriteria decision making.

A hybrid model of multicriteria decision making fuzzy AHP - VIKOR was used to select the unmanned aerial vehicle for the needs of tactical units. Criteria of importance for the selection of an unmanned aerial vehicle for the needs of tactical units have been defined on the basis of which the most optimal solution (unmanned aerial vehicle) has been selected. The criteria are defined on the basis of tactical-technical and economic characteristics of unmanned aerial vehicles. The calculation of the weight coefficients of the defined criteria was performed using the fuzzy AHP method, while the selection of the drone (the most favorable alternative) based on the defined criteria was performed using the VIKOR method. The obtained result represents the starting point for further research and implementation of unmanned aerial vehicles in tactical units of the army and police.
