LoooSeR Posted January 27 Report Share Posted January 27 Spoiler Quote The crashed new stealthy "Geran'-2" with a non-resonant volumetric coating and thermobaric warheads. This coating consists of cellular foam, in which incoming radio waves begin to move spontaneously, which prevents them from being reflected back to the radar properly. In addition, the black color of the coating also reduces the visibility of the drone against the sky at night. With a thermobaric warhead, everything is clear; essentially, a less powerful analogue of missiles from Solntsepek is sent to targets behind enemy lines.

LoooSeR Posted March 28 Report Share Posted March 28 https://vk.com/video-123538639_456307273 AI recognition system for drones by Ploshad' system company. A bit glichy in video, usual for NN-based recognition systems used on video footage. Spoiler Interesting ways to use this system starts with automatic guidance of ordnance to individual vehicles and soldiers, recon and ends with networked cheap air defense systems in depth against drones, cruise missiles, incoming rockets and so on. Also it counters small EW systems effects significantly if it works reliable enough and widespread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ploshad' system used in this drone. You can mute the video, footage is what is interesting. Drone used 2 stage system for terminal guidance - neural network and algorithm. AFAIK first one recognize object of attack and second actually track that object and guide drone to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alzoc Posted April 28 Report Share Posted April 28 French fast short-range Shaed : 80 km range, with a top speed of 400 km/h and a maximum autonomy of 3h. Can double-up as a reusable recon drone. Supposed to be launched and recovered using VTOL (though I don't see how with this design). Charge is without surprise an EFP. It can navigate without using GPS (inertial navigation? Would be expensive) in case of signal jamming. Optronic ball can detect a tank sized target at 15 km by day and 3 km by night. https://www.opex360.com/2024/04/28/le-francais-eos-technologie-a-devoile-veloce-330-une-munition-teleoperee-pouvant-voler-a-400-km-h/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoooSeR Posted April 28 Report Share Posted April 28 And first 7 minutes of this video: This system looks like it had several thigns going for it. Cheap way to intercept drones and software fusion of data from sensors and AI that allows for detection and recognition of drones, system can recognise birds which should help with lower false positives.

Vtol launch from a separate drone would not be unusual but somewhat less than practical with turbine engine ,but recovery not likely to be VTOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoooSeR Posted May 23 Report Share Posted May 23 Quote Ukrainian channels are posting a photo of a previously unseen Russian drone. In its design, the drone is very similar to the Italmas kamikaze UAV announced in the fall, but still has some differences in design. Possibly this is "Italmas" UAV. Here is Italmas shown officially by company that desgined and makes Lancets, Italmas: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoooSeR Posted May 31 Report Share Posted May 31 Quote Drones "Veles" (Russian company Aero-HIT) are being tested together with a terminal guidance system using AI For this purpose, 46 drones equipped with AI were allocated. Tests were carried out at the test site for several days. Task: Debugging the interaction of the drone control loop with the additional guidance system. It is worth noting that all the drones were actually destroyed, as they say in production - “destructive control method.” During the tests, data was obtained that will further improve the drone’s performance and hit accuracy.
