arXiv:2607.00338v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Object detection for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) working in open and dynamic environments is a highly challenging task. While Vision-Language Models (VLMs) have offered a powerful solution for universal object detection, adapting them to UAV scenarios remains non-trivial due to a substantial domain gap between VLM pre-training data and aerial imagery. The prevailing Parameter-Efficient Fine-Tuning (PEFT) methods prove ineffective in bridging this gap, as VLMs' "natural-scene, foreground-dominant" visual priors misalign with the "bird's-eye-vi
