Part of me wonders if this would be more effectively used as an air-defence drone rather than ground attack.
Cant see sh¡t
Now could they use these to shoot down recon drones?
The psychological damage will have more impact
Would probably be effective on chasing light troop transports
Someone’s been busy in Q-branch this week.
Just the beginning… wait a bit and no one will be laughing anymore.
Man it’s going to be a real problem trying to outrun these hunter killer drones in the future. This is just proof of concept for a tiny little drone with the capability to kill being used, not during war, but by police and other agencies. Grim tidings
Need downward Schräge Musik.
this but with a smaller gun that has its own gimbal aiming system and ai controlled targeting system
Even if the accuracy is terrible they’re probably pretty effective for suppressing enemy positions
That will for sure get their attention of you want to give them something else in surprise…
OMG… Insane…
Now put a laptop motherboard on it and use a computer vision model for aiming instead of doing it manually over a barely leggible analog camera.
Duck hunting season going to be wild this year…
Imagine standing still because you think a fpv with a shitty camera is coming your way but then it starts fkn shooting at you
Einstein said we would be fighting with sticks and stones…what he didn’t realize is that one side would be throwing them at assault rifle drones. Lol
This will be great for targeting other drones
Sources say they’re working on a tank mounted drone next.
bird shot drum mag in a saiga and make it rain on the trenches, but dip the bullets in a bucket full of shit first.
I doubt it’s very effective, but it’s enough of a danger not to act upon being shot at, so at worst it’ll flush people out of their positions.
We are watching what is the crude version of a potential terrifying future to warfare thousands of machine gun drones could be autonomously sent to a certain grid with the goal of killing anything that moves in said grid with no outsider input other then the initial target coordinates
Point it straight down and use the camera to aim
Still lot of room for improvement: – Need more stabilization
– Need iron sight for POV of drone operator
I feel that if the two things can be resolved, this one will be much more dangerous to infantry than FPV drone. If successful, Ukraine may need fewer rifle infantry to control land, which would probably result in less casualties.
This is literally the shit I imagined war would be like in the future as a kid. Not the grenade dropping drones for some reason, I always thought of machine guns on drones.
Definitely a crazy idea but wonder if it’s really practical. Dropping grenades and shit is different in sense they watch the target but he’s up high just shooting rounds. Give it some time bet they’ll get crazier
I love that Ukraine war is just a low tech version of Black Ops 2
That thermite dropping drone looked way more effective.
Honestly, go watch murderbots on YT. A rifle attached to a drone is a dumb idea, basically proven by this video.
One bullet attached to a drone, on the other hand…
No, just dont
Skynet smiles.
Skynet is gonna be tough to put down
This seems like it would be ineffective. Aiming looks like a nightmare, and you’re unable to clear a jam. Recoil also seems to throw it all over. It’s a start, though.
It’s all well and good on the battlefield. I can see this being the next generation of terror attacks in a civilian setting.
