Abstract

The object of research is air transport security system. The prerequisites for implementing security measures in air transport have been investigated. This is due to the fact that the most serious threat to the safety of air transport is unlawful interference acts (UIA), the commission of which is a crime and cannot be justified. Therefore, it is constantly necessary to promote the increase of efficiency in combating this evil at the global level.

Factors influencing the safety of the ATS components depending on the features of their functioning have been determined. For the "air transportation" ATS component the most vulnerable object is the airport, where the processes of the initial and final stages of the flight take place. For the "special purpose aviation" component of the ATS, the most vulnerable sector is aviation-chemical work in the agricultural sector. In this sector, aviation protects grain crops with chemicals. It has been found that pesticides can be a significant threat due to their use for the purpose of biochemical terrorism.

A mathematical model has been developed and implemented that reflects the dynamics of passenger flow through airport procedures. The dynamic distribution of airport resources for performing screening procedures both during normal operation and when operating under threat conditions was calculated. As a result, extreme cases of resource requirements were identified – for performing security checks lasting an average of 7 minutes per passenger. When the throughput is exceeded by 2 times, the need for the corresponding resources is 4.7 times greater than for performing security checks lasting an average of 3 minutes per passenger and with minimally sufficient process throughput to complete everything within the established time frame
