The evolution of Flying Ad-hoc Networks (FANETs) marks a paradigm shift from reliance on a single, large unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) to collaborative systems comprising multiple small UAVs that dynamically form temporary, self-organizing networks. Owing to their flexibility and scalability, FANETs have garnered significant attention in both academia and industry, enabling diverse applications ranging from intelligent transportation systems and e-health services to smart tourism and emergency response coordination. To sustain reliable communication in their inherently multi-hop architecture, FANETs must efficiently manage constrained resources while preserving stringent quality-of-service (QoS) requirements. However, the open nature of wireless communication coupled with the high mobility and dynamic topology of UAVs renders FANETs particularly susceptible to security breaches. Malicious nodes can exploit these characteristics to infiltrate the network
