Question about the survivability of drones against the anti-aircraft systems.

Some Ukrainian operators criticized drones and say that those systems would not survive a long time because Russians transported effective anti-aircraft systems to the front. A drone is so-called loitering ammunition.

It is a similar tool to submarines and other aircraft. The idea is that the system stays undetected. If the submarine is detected, it's easy to destroy. Same way, aircraft is easy to destroy if some weapons are targeted and locked to it.

*********************************************************************

Forbes says:

The Bayraktar TB-2 Drones are made this kind of result and destroyed the next targets:

-6 armored fighting vehicles

-5 towed artillery,

-1 multi-rocket launcher

-2 anti-aircraft guns

-10 helicopters

-6 naval ships

-3 command posts

-1 communication station

-2 logistics trains and numerous resupply trucks.

Ukrainians lost 8 Baraktar drones

The Ukrainian military reportedly started the war with just 30 of these drones and has lost only 8 in combat. So the ratio is good for drones.

The laser systems above are meant for manned aircraft. But drones can use similar systems.

Drones are easy targets for anti-aircraft missiles if they are detected. This is the thing that people must realize. The use of drones bases that the drone itself is undetected. So the drone is so-called loitering ammunition. The purpose of it is to be hard to see, and easy to destroy. But then we must ask one question: why do the Russians transport effective anti-aircraft systems to the front only now?

The drone flies slowly. And it's easy to jam. So it should be an easy target for combat helicopters and aircraft. So why Russians didn't shoot those Bayraktar drones down? if they are easy targets. When we are thinking about the survivability of the drone, we must understand that there is the possibility that some western drones have counter-missile systems.

That anti-missile system is like an airborne version of the Israeli Trophy system that is made to protect tanks. When the system detects incoming missiles it will shoot them by using some kind of laser or some other directed energy weapon or machine gun, that mission is to destroy or jam the incoming missiles. But the question is what drone makes those kills? Is it some kind of Bayraktar or smaller Kamikaze drones?

The Kamikaze drones are smaller and cheaper than those larger drones. Drones like Grey Eagle are like remote-controlled aircraft. But Kamikaze drones are easier to make. They are more like some small-size cruise missiles. All drones can point the targets to artillery, aircraft, or kamikaze drones. Also, kamikaze drones can make the targeting missions. And when their fuel is ending they can dive against their target.

Antimatter motor

Antimatter motor Antimatter would be an effective fuel for interstellar spacecraft Antimatter would be the most effective power source in the world. It will be the most suitable motor for interstellar spacecraft, but the problem is that thing is very reactive. And actually one of the biggest problems with this kind of motor is that the gram of antimatter would turn the entire planet to the molecular nebula. So this kind of motor can produce only outside of our solar system. Producing antimatter would need large particle accelerators, and that kind of systems might look like giant donuts, what is floating on the space. There are two ways to create the antimatter motor, one is to store the anti-ions in the magnetic bottle, where the pushing magnetic field will keep those ions away from the wall of the bottle, and then the antimatter would conduct to the water or some other particle. The huge explosion or annihilation reaction would send the rocket to a very high speed. The antimatt...

The cyborg lichen can be one of the most exotic visions of what the high-tech civilization might look like.

. The cyborg lichen can be one of the most exotic visions of what the high-tech civilization might look like. Above is the image of the nano-submarine. There is introduced an idea, that this kind of system would equip with living neurons, which makes it like some kind of artificial bug or mosquito. The idea is that the robot can take the nutrient by using the robot tube, which acts like a proboscis. The neurons can get nutrients and the rest of the machine can use small fuel cells or the energy to that system can deliver by using the radio waves. Futurologists are thinking about the ideas, what the hybridization of the neurons and machine would look like? Could the hyper-technical civilization look like the group of midget submarines? Those submarines might take nutrients for the neurons, what is living in them. The purpose of the midget submarines, which might be size less than a couple of millimeters would maximize the survivability of the neurons. One of the most intere...

Could this be the thing, that some people don't want you to know about zombies?

Could this be the thing, that some people don't want you to know about zombies? The simplest way to control zombies, which are made by using tetrodotoxin, which is called "zombie poison" is to use the automatic dispenser, which is normally used in diabetes treatment. In this case, the dispenser would be loaded by using tetrodotoxin. If the level of this poison is right, the person would be totally under the control of other people. And if the system cannot detect this poison there is a possibility to make the laboratory experiment when the staff will follow the decrease of the tetrodotoxin, and then the system can use a simple clock, which will inject poison to the body of a victim after a certain time. This would be an effective tool in the hands of military and counter-terror operators. Those zombies can be captured enemy operators, who will send back, and then they just kill their ex-partners. By using genetically engineered bacteria could be possible to create t...
