Hope the Russian won’t be able to supply their troops soon.

$6k ea for a ‘Martian’/Hornet, with a 130 km range, that creates its own relays to human controllers with mesh radio on civilian cell frequencies, and can lock onto parts of moving vehicles.
That’s the price of Aerovironment’s Switchblade 300 drone, with a 10 km range and repurposed 40mm grenade warhead, from a decade ago. Things have gotten harder, better, faster, stronger, and most importantly, cheaper.
This conflict already demonstrated that combined arms offensives against near peers is broken. Back to mostly positional warfare. With tools like the Hornet, the no man’s land of future conflicts will be tens of km wide everywhere but cities.

Once Ukraine wins this war, I think they will end up being one of the dominant drones makers for civilians and military. I know I’ll be one of the first in line to buy one.

I was mentioning on here at the beginning of the war that facial recognition tech can be adapted with the processing power found in mobile phones (now rendered obsolete as we have dedicated low cost AI modules) to use regularly updated internal maps to navigate. Ive seen start ups also devise modules they hope to boot onto drones that use the same principle.
So part of this tech requires regularly updating data from recent drone footage and its the same system really that you would need to recognise and designate targets, Ukrainian soldiers I suggested can label the drone visual data to make effective data sets for such visual AI systems and do all that for free in house.
There are cruise missiles that do much the same thing but at much lower resolution using topographical data, and map reading via a combo of INS and internal topographical maps. I believe Stormshadow uses this.

Great to see ruzzian orcs getting schooled in Ukrainian Drone University.

As long as RUSSIANS DESPAIR all is good. Wish i had a fraction of Ukrainian strength, bravery and brains.

“Russian troops are calling Ukraine’s latest Hornet drone swarms “Martians” because the Russians believe they use technology developed by NASA”
LITERALLY “UNKNOWN TECHNOLOGY”
“destroying trucks100 miles away. ”
Ohhh that explains the extremely large numbers of vehicles being destroyed in the casualty daily report

I’d like to see a super long range version of this “uninterruptible drone” endlessly attacking the Russian oil and gas industry.

“And much of the credit for may go to Eric Schmidt, former Google CEO turned drone warfare investor”…so, go Google? LOL.

WHAT A GREAT WEAPON!
HIT THE ORCS EVERYWHERE!
GLORY AND PEACE TO VICTORIOUS UKRAINE! 🇺🇦
Good. Drown Russian forces in Ukrainian hornets.
Hope the Russian won’t be able to supply their troops soon.
