Ukrainian developers, together with the Delta military initiative, have found a technologically advanced way to destroy
What is known
For this, algorithms of artificialintellect. The developers trained AI to recognize camouflaged armored vehicles. While shooting from an unmanned aerial vehicle, artificial intelligence identifies hidden equipment and marks it with red squares. After that, the UAV sends the coordinates to the drone operator and the headquarters commander.
Drones are usually equipped with one orseveral ammo, so they can immediately attack the target. For example, we recently wrote that Ukrainian enthusiasts made a quadrocopter that can carry three 82 mm mines at once. There are also UAVs that can lift more bombs, i.e. capable of destroying two targets at once, incl. tanks.
Cost of an unmanned aerial vehicleis $15,000-20,000, and one bomb is $1,000. Even according to the roughest estimates, six UAVs with a dozen bombs need to be spent less than $200,000. The price of one Javelin anti-tank missile system is $600,000 complete with six missiles. Naturally, it is hardly possible to call the comparison correct, but still.
The developers note that drones with AI are notuse GPS during the flight, in connection with which Russian countermeasures do not always work. Now experts are developing drones that can lift a load weighing 20 kg and fly at a distance of 50 km.
