The recent technology in surveillance for military vehicle parts forms the basis of intelligence warfare through information realized through monitoring and tracking operations in complex situations. Therefore, the process of identifying and classifying vehicles by an aerial vehicle installed with a resource-limited device and an intelligent object detection algorithm significantly assists security agencies. It is possible to make use of this vehicle either manually or autonomously. To overcome these issues, edge device based military vehicle detection from Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) is proposed. At present, no publicly available dataset exists that includes different military classes. Therefore, the proposed approach use a dataset consisting of 6772 images labeled as Tanks, Military Trucks, Helicopters, Aircraft, Civilian Cars and Civilian Aircraft. This data set is used to train deep learning models such as Quantized SSD Mobilenetv2 and Tiny Yolo v5 that are then compared with resource limited edge devices. The results reveal that Tiny Yolo v5 outperforms other models, showing high efficiency and suitability for edge-based devices due to its lightweight design.
