This kind of system could be installed on old aircraft
Sometimes we have heard that USAF has been transformed the old good F-117 "Nighthawks" to drones. When we are thinking about the way to turn some aircraft to the drone, we must realize that the simplest thing, what we could do is simply build the man-looking robot, what would step in the aircraft, and then just start to fly that machine.
Every connection and communication system can simply be installed to the robot by using USB- wire and electric cable, and everything that is including the mission can install into that robot. So if the robot must just fly to some area, drop the bomb and return home it doesn't need very sophisticated technology.
The robot must just pull the aircraft up from the ground, and then the mission can be loaded to the bomb, which can be dropped automatically. The only thing that robot must do is pull the wheels up, and then the autopilot, where is right flight altitude set would fly the aircraft to the area, and the automatic system can drop the bomb.
And if this thing is the only thing, that the aircraft must do, the robot would not need very sophisticated programming. The only thing, why this kind of system is needed is that technology denies the hacking of the drone. So, in this case, we can think that the databases are like the punch cards, and the robot would change the database when the system is reporting that the bomb is away.
The system requires two inertial navigation systems, and the second one can be in the robot. The gyrocompass number one drives the aircraft to the target, and the second one would fly the aircraft back to home. And the idea is that the second gyrocompass would be targeted to base. Can this kind of pseudo-intelligent system act like the real sophisticated artificial intelligence?
If we are thinking that the gyroscope-controlled aircraft would flight inside the canyon without radar and other sensors except for altimeter, we must realize that the system needs the precise altitude of the bottom of the canyon. Then it needs the point where it can start the run, the distance between waypoints and the speed and the time, what takes to drive to the next waypoint.
Then the inertia will re-aiming to the next waypoint, and this makes the system looks intelligent. (So if we are telling what this kind of program looks like in English it looks like this: Set speed to 800km/h, altitude 1200 meters, and rise it 5 degrees, fly 15 seconds straight ahead, and turn left 30 degrees... ). This is the thing, what considers the rise of the landscape, and other things.
Also, the plane could react to flashes and incoming missiles by using automatically the chaffs and flares. The system can be installed in the warning summer. The aircraft can also shoot counter weapons against the incoming missiles. As you see this kind of system will not require lots of technology, and their mission could pull the enemy fire against themselves.
