Disambiguation: FMV in DoD/military context consistently refers to Full Motion Video. Not to be confused with acronyms in other domains (e.g., FMV in gaming = Full Motion Video cinematics; FMV in other sectors = different meanings).

Full Motion Video (FMV) is a military and intelligence term for real-time or near-real-time video surveillance from airborne platforms, including manned aircraft and unmanned aerial systems (UAS). FMV enables persistent surveillance and tracking of high-value targets, providing 'pattern of life' imagery for Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) operations. It has become a standard capability across multiple U.S. military branches (Army, Navy, Marine Corps) since the mid-2000s and is used to track moving targets while reducing collateral damage. FMV operates at television-like frame rates (24–60 Hz) and presents both significant tactical advantages (real-time awareness) and operational challenges (bandwidth, data processing, human analysis requirements). The technology is often integrated with other intelligence collection systems and has evolved alongside unmanned aircraft modernization.

Desambiguação: FMV in DoD/military context consistently refers to Full Motion Video. Not to be confused with acronyms in other domains (e.g., FMV in gaming = Full Motion Video cinematics; FMV in other sectors = different meanings).

Full Motion Video (FMV) é um termo militar e de inteligência que se refere a vídeo em tempo real ou quase tempo real de plataformas aéreas, incluindo aeronaves tripuladas e sistemas aéreos não tripulados (UAS). FMV permite vigilância persistente e rastreamento de alvos de alto valor, fornecendo imagens de 'padrão de vida' para operações de Inteligência, Vigilância e Reconhecimento (ISR). Tornou-se uma capacidade padrão em múltiplas filiais militares dos EUA (Exército, Marinha, Corpo de Fuzileiros Navais) desde meados de 2000 e é usado para rastrear alvos em movimento enquanto reduz danos colaterais. FMV opera em taxas de quadros semelhantes às da televisão (24–60 Hz) e apresenta tanto vantagens táticas significativas (conscientização em tempo real) quanto desafios operacionais (largura de banda, processamento de dados, requisitos de análise humana). A tecnologia é frequentemente integrada com outros sistemas de coleta de inteligência e evoluiu junto com a modernização de aeronaves não tripuladas.
