Well Jow Forums Jow Forums. Are you ready to step up and make this a REAL WEAPONS BOARD. Id say you're in great position to start sharung computer weapon ideas and collaboration builds. Thoughts?
wait, is china actually buying into those russian collage student CGI videos on youtube about fruit truck drones?

drone with grenade inside.
Michael Jones
Look up the ted talk on weapon drones...
Daniel Williams
Hmmm. Yeah but guidance system. I am thinking swarm drones with 177 hmr caliber machine guns.. And mini missiles ...not just self destructirs. All need guidance systems.. Thoughts?
>110mph No. I race drones. 100mph is hard to do in a drone. It takes a good racing drone with zero payload, high kv inefficient motors, high pitch inefficient props, and a battery with only 2 minutes of flight time to break 100mph. If you want any sort of endurance beyond 2 minutes, distance, or payload of any sort then you aren't breaking 100mph.

Even if this drone propaganda was ever real, how many reminders do you faggots need that a few rice farmers with double barrels could take on a hundred drones?
Nicholas Harris
They could use those drones with alternative engines, I guess. But at that point it's just a guided missile except the chemical propellant's been swapped out for a ramjet or some shit.
Nicholas Martinez
>generic equipment that's been around for years is "unrealistic" "overpowered" "propaganda"
ok sweetie. Switchblade, Warmate, Alpagu [sic], Harop, Hero, Harpy, etc are all fake. Propellers and datalinks are a global conspiracy.
Im the drone racing fag again In my opinion a fixed wing miniature plane makes much more sense as a drone grenade delivery. Quadcopters have abysmal efficiency compared to fixed wing. The only advantages multirotors have on fixed wing is the ability to hover and maneuverability. A fixed wing can carry more weight faster and farther using less energy.

China even has swarms of drone ships >Oceanalpha confirmed the drones are designed to overwhelm enemies during sea battles.
>“Once equipped with weapons, unmanned small combat vessels can attack the enemy in large numbers, similar to drones,” Li Jie, a Beijing-based naval expert, told the Global Times.
>“A mothership will control the swarm in combat, making them easy to deploy.”
>Zhang Yunfei, founder and chairman of Oceanalpha, said in a statement that his company had performed the largest-ever demonstration of unmanned vessels at sea.
None of these are quadcopters. You'll be pleased to learn that Chang's 4x4 drone truck isn't either. It's a tube with flip out wings. So is the recon version, although the chinks do have a4x4 with a heavy quadcopter rack.
You'd know this if you stopped taking CGI in "popular mechanics" and "the sun" seriously and looked at a photo of the drones in question.
Wouldn't it a be a great cheap option to outfit commercial drones to drop a simple payload of a few frag grenades?
Jacob Allen
The US military has been flying drones for YEARS that fly much faster than 100mph that carry Hellfire missiles. You're some ignorant little kid talking about toys.
Colton Morgan
You stupid fuck they're not electric motor pieces of plastic.

Zachary Brooks
Here's a protip. The "brand new military technology" countries unveil is usually at least a couple years old. China developed this back in 2015 or something, American intelligence agencies found out, developed a countermeasure, and then China developed something new to counter that countermeasure. No military is going to show off its latest technology to the world to see and prepare for.

got canceled so they could fix their carrier
Robert Baker
And those aren't small enough to stack into multiple tubes and load on a vehicle

>send drones loaded with explosives out to seek and destroy enemy All well and good until some drones dont detonate and run out of battery. Then you've essentially amazon prime'd high explosives to your enemy for use against you.
