China tests artificial intelligence artillery mount - AI improves accuracy to an unprecedented level

The People's Liberation Army of China tested an artillery gun with artificial intelligence. By

According to the Chinese edition of the South China Morning Post, the gun demonstrated unprecedented accuracy, which no weapon in the army’s arsenal can boast of.

What is known

An artillery mount is capable of accurately hittingperson at a distance of 16 km, if artificial intelligence is used to aim at the target. The accuracy demonstrated by the cannon during testing exceeded all expectations. But it is worth noting that there is no confirmation other than a few photos and articles on Chinese websites.

The project was led by Chinese professor Wang Jiang from the Beijing Institute of Technology. His work was published in the journal Acta Armamentarii earlier this month.

According to the professor, artificial intelligencecapable of processing data much faster than traditional mathematical methods. The gun is equipped with sensors, radars and cameras to collect information about the location of the target, wind speed and other factors that must be taken into account during firing.

The collected data is sent to a computer,which calculates the optimal angle and force of the shot. Moreover, the system is able to automatically correct shooting in real time if it receives information about changes in the environment.

Normal projectiles can deviate from the target by 100meters. Guided munitions are used to solve the problem, but their accuracy is also limited, because. to adjust the course during the flight, you need to take into account a huge number of factors in real time. Artificial intelligence does it instantly.

Chinese scientists have also tested severalAI models in work related to complex changes in the trajectory of the projectile. According to them, the "division of labor" between several models has significantly increased the accuracy of hitting targets.

Artillery mounts based on artificialintelligence, will allow you to accurately destroy enemy units and hidden military equipment. Moreover, they will cost less and operate more efficiently than missiles.
