- What are drone swarms and why might they matter?
A mob of them is on the hunt in a mock US city. 🏙️
The American military's research and development unit set up the fake urban area to experiment with hundreds of unmanned systems.

From what I have seen from drone tech, specifically fpv- I would be forced to assume the face of war has changed completely. Totally. I need a defensive swarm I can call to protect me, or carry me away. If I need it :)
Even if a drone was completely destroyed in the process then it could still be seen as a cheap method of assassination with no Risks to the operator.
Funker530 recently posted a video of a drone dropping a mortar round on a soldier in Ukraine.
ISIS has used drones in Syria to deliver explosives.
So, you're saying the U.S government, who spends trillions of dollars on war, can afford a few hundred dollars? Wow, Great insight
there people print fake money to fund their wars in the first place, its crazy that Babylonians still believe in the golden calf that these war technologies are going to "bring them prosperity through protection" that is a poisoned Poseidon and its a lie that will cost the future dearly. They do not have to worry about a trip back, they are used to wasting payloads in random artillery borages do don't think there isn't enough boom boom to go around just cause they switch to drones their accuracy will make it easy to kill the most people with the least random boom boom barrages. LIke a Green Parties version of "Green clean sustainable warfare" right cause nukes destroy life drones get the bad guys! Yeah for the Golden Calf and mutually assured destruction of Babylon!!!!!
I wouldn’t say no risk and corresponding counterstrike can be developed by the opposition to recon surveillance can you imagine a drone dog-fight
@cropsey7, not if they do it by satellite.
Ukraine is a great example of drones playing their part in war. Dropping bombs on soldiers with no risk to the user, costing less than 2000 dollars
I build up FPVs 20 years ago and still do but not 2000 they're closer to 5-600
But still 0 ai used. Ai has always been a huge mouth but no action while fpv drones unlike ai, are quiet but when they do some action, they prove to be the best military device all along 😂
@@toututu2993Wait till your local terrorist gets a hold of these devices. Man these folks are insane 😂✌🏽
If the purpose of the drone is to slam into something and destroy it then long term survivability and recharging is no longer an issue.
It will work against smaller targets, these small drones won't be able to sink a carrier.
@@fanaticcoder3320
But they could take out the aircraft on the deck and their communication equipment... What good is an aircraft carrier without airplanes?
@@GSpotter63 Usually all the aircrafts are not stationed on upper deck. majority are stored in lower deck. There is always a possibility, but smaller drones don't have higher payload, so the carrier would be fine.
The viable defense against drone swarm will be microwave weapons.
@@fanaticcoder3320
Not quite sure if you understand this but in order for the planes to take off they have to be brought up to the upper deck.. At which point they become extremely vulnerable to even small arms fire.
@@fanaticcoder3320if there is enough of drones it will,one or two wasp stings wont kill you but if you get swarmed by thousands of them you will die.
BBC Radio 4 had a very frank and in depth conversation by Stuart Russel looking at Autonomous drone warfare and the even more dangerous threat of AI… Covering not on only the technological implications but also the ethical and what could go wrong.
This is the tip of the ice berg. Imagine how many China could build fast with their manufacturing capability
@@Clickathon yeah maybe they're outsourcing manufacturing during peace time but if there were ever a war (which i assume is the scenario in which a country would be doing this) its not like they cant just stop the outsourcing and put some of their 1.3 billion worker bees to task. And maybe it will be automation but still, those facilities dont build themselves and thats where those 1.3 billion people come in handy again
Some companies in China have a high level of automation. But even more, they have the right mix of high automation for steps that can be automated on the one hand, and cheap and efficient labor on the other hand.
If it comes to produce and assemble smart phones, notebooks, or drones you need both.
In addition, they have the largest stock of development engineers on the planet.
"Could build" 😐
Russians are testing them in Ukraine now ... its horrendous 😢
you can't do anything about it unless you have a weapon that can bring down all of those in one go.. sadly in a world war scenario perhaps it is too late for you to discover that you are the only remaining person against them...
Drone swarms: im gonna get you!
Me: puts up a regular net.
Solid Snake's carboard box is making a comeback.
Do you think drones are that weak? You will be gone in the most stupid ways
Sounds like a black mirror episode
Brilliant project Congratulations
I mean the new Tempest designed jet, is suppose to be able to control drone swarms. I believe it was said,
Most if not all 6th gen fighter aircraft will. Varied types for different roles too.
some kind of scrambling system and then a baseball bat may be of assistance
Sling shot.
Not really an option if each drone contains an explosive charge.
Having added Semtex to each drone it’s a small upgrade add some AI to identify targets …
Ai were never useful in the first place. It is industrial overhype lying business and nothing more
Equip the drone swarm with explosives and they could be used to take out enemy missile launch sites before they have a chance to launch. They simply attach themselves to the missile and blow up or detonate nearby.
Coming to a town,near you.
frightening. that said, what about air-to-air recharging? or air-drop induction charging stations?
Seeing as how we already have aerial refueling, that seems like a given.
air-drop induction
lmao, I hope you arent serious
hey guys at least we can target their charging stations if they are on the ground, its the only option then
Massive nettings will catch them from all directions high and low or use an EMP pulse
Don't forget to dispose of the controllers.
I tought about it dude that should be a way to get rid of them.
If was that easy Russia would have no issues with them. But they lost a lot of boats.
A modern version of a punt gun would take them out.
A 10 bore with 3 1/2” magnums will do it no worries but I do like your style!!!
The drones will go Velociraptor on you.
They already have autonomous drones with facial recognition equipped with a small charge which detonates on impact ...
I saw that on history channel dude and it's a reality considering the amount of tech available nowdays.
Source? You saw the fictional video of this scenario, made to look like a real world thing?
@@eaaeeeeaif the technology is available (which it is), is cost-effective and efficient (it would be), then it is likely being or has been developed
I had a drone once, flew up into the sky, never saw it again, total waste of £49.99
Imagine 10,000 of these mass produced quickly and cheaply and released into cities...scary. And this is only the beginning they will get much smaller closer to fly sized eventually....will able to inject poison or detonate at targets.
It’s already being done Henry
microwave weapons
Countermeasure .. fly defensive drones that lift large, stationary, vertical nets
I think it's just the seer numbers you can throw at it.
All this latest stuff and new tech they bring outs all well n good till 'they' start using it against us 😔
smoke and fire in the area forces drones to go too high to see anything or go low, where they are easier to take out......crazy strategy but yeah crazy time right.
Maybe we could do with more agile and quicker ‘kill vehicle’ versions of these protecting our carrier group?
We already have that, it's called fpv drones. No ai used though
Good concerns. What are the limits and who imposes Rules of Engagement when subtlety and safety are thrown out the window during initial days of any given conflict of a major scale is underway.
Just watched this one TH-cam video of where WW2 American pilots were swarming over mainland Japan. Those guys would swarm any given area and just shoot up the entire place - all buildings, civilian, military & manufacturing (+ fishermen) all were not immune - but the pilots were because of one thing - A war. War of a grander scale breeds a level of contempt for the opposition when your friends and family and everyone you know - are killed and threatened.
Ukraine did pay attention
As we speak people are already arming them .
Do swarming armed drones make warfare impossible to fight,large expensive weapon platforms will be impossible to protect,such as warships, tanks and bases could be taken out realistically cheaply.
Someone somewhere will soon throw up a big frequency suppression fragmentation that self-destruct in the midst of all these little drones, killing all of them in one fell swoop.
Tech that can be used against innocent people !
Its OK, I have a CIWS on the roof.
can we buy counter drone drones?
Yes
Where?
@@kahlernygard809 is there a specific place?
Thanks for the information
I love my rf jammer
Somewhere out there...there is a bunker drone factory and assembly building a million drone/autonomous land vehicle army..
With missiles and munitions and programming code for all sorts of different missions you can have a military/intelligence force that can do a lot of damage without exposing your own people to combat.
Worried yet? You should be.
freedom is doomed
Still waiting for that EMP-weapon
These things are a jackpot for humanity. I'm not concerned.
The swarms need to be able to take out armored vehicles and tanks per unit... I guess scouting for artillary is a start.
Swarms is Switchblade.
A.I computer can control them all at once, I think they will go with that.
Why not build towers with GPS jamming around areas you want defended?
Most of these systems are constructed shielded and with lock designation software meaning once you set a target it doesn't matter if you lose direct communication or gps they intercommunicate and strike using synchronous image tracking. I'm sure they have or will have some countermeasures if one or a few go down probably spread out formation. About your only bet to win is a surprise attack from a row of automatic fire flak cannons or a team of Olympic skeet shooters.
Drones are too small to be detected by radars
One has to ask if we spent the same time and money figuring out why an intelligent species needs to have war anymore would that be a better use of time and money?
Revelation 9:7-11
7 The locusts looked like horses prepared for battle. On their heads they wore something like crowns of gold, and their faces resembled human faces. 8 Their hair was like women’s hair, and their teeth were like lions’ teeth. 9 They had breastplates like breastplates of iron, and the sound of their wings was like the thundering of many horses and chariots rushing into battle. 10 They had tails with stingers, like scorpions, and in their tails they had power to torment people for five months. 11 They had as king over them the angel of the Abyss, whose name in Hebrew is Abaddon and in Greek is Apollyon (that is, Destroyer).
I want my Tachikoma swarm !
Its literally the drone swarm from black ops 2
They need to implement defensive swarms on super carriers
This will be the only protection against offensive swarms.
Ah yes "defensive" weapons
Ray Bradbury wrote about this.
As security technology increases so does hacker’s ability to access it. Thought is likely given to not arming them all as a hack could reverse the attack. The right persons with the right drop down menu of non compliant radio signals because war might make drones a no go.
Reliability
I think we now need an under barrel net launcher to capture these drones
Or a flying cargo net to capture and safely retrieve other drones.
Ok, now I will have to include a self destruction charge on the drones and wait for you to try and retrieve them
Multiple of tiny missile's, and one big one going right back at command.
And one blast of a emi and they all will fall
I’m surprised that in Ukraine they don’t have a master and slave setup with drones where one can set a hot location to pull is a swarm of say four to blanket attack in a bracketed drop on live targets , I’d study track and perform secondary attacks also on remaining live moving targets that breakout
Because there is a deficiency of drones. And their optimal use is artillery eyes.
Speaking of ai-controlled kamikazes like switchblade 300 drones they didn't perform well in real combat warfare as I know. On the other hand operator controlled FPV kamikaze drones are extremely effective.
Of course AI-control is a future. But now it's real detection capabilities and control level are much worse than experienced human-operator.
My drone is 500 metres long.
It just flew over you.
Drones will make trench warfare obsolete.
Autonomous, infrared guided, short range, flying claymore mines.
drive up with a container full of these things, and set them loose on the point of breakthru
You can't EMP them away. Too small to shoot them down. Too many of them to use nets
Keep testing and evaluating. If they help save troops lives, it’s all worth it.
The problem is that the other side is also researching and building and at a much faster pace to crush our guys.
As someone said, research portable EMPs asap
...until you're the target.
Saving more lives by not sending troops overseas
@@makermarx exactly. Now that conservative Americans have been identified as the greatest terrorist threat to our nation, it’s only natural that these be used to neutralize “targets” that pose a threat to the Regime. And with facial recognition tech, gosh, it would be super simple! The future’s looking brighter everyday! 😩
That is a rather shallow train of thought. They are being made to hunt YOU down, not an enemy army.
China seems to be a really big investor into swarm drone technology. They have put a ton of research into it. Every so often I see AI controlled LED light show drone night displays with most coming out of China. If they can do highly coordinated moves and operations by the thousands they can be used to lock down entire airspaces.
Thats how they would be able to defeat the United states a billion suicide drone swarms
@@OFFCODEV2that’s ridiculous and not true lol
@@jmartin45 it is real an very possible
@@OFFCODEV2
Defense would be:
1. Radar controlled shotgun CIWS
2. Microwave weapon
:)
The a-holes developing these drones don't realize in the end they and their families will fall victim to this technology.
They don't care.
You Hippie, either we destroy Them or they destroy Us
So lets say all of us here form the comments developed 10,000 fast drones with high explosives, and sent all of them towards a high value military target (aircraft carrier or military landing strip), how are they EVER gonna defend themselves against 10,000 fast drones?? - there is just no way as I see it.
Thank goodness it is cheap and easy to make EMP gren@des.
War: ❌
Mini drone war: ✅
Mecha wars : yes
Sure.. Pair it with combat AI
Unmanned warcraft is dumb AF, a signal scramming device takes them out....I would at least have a plan b programmed in the system to either return home or attack a set point
Rev 9. Locusts.
What do you think of the Idea of cameras being the mark of the beast?
Didn’t Trump say something about being prepared to stay inside for 2 weeks then upped it to 6 months.
I mean that would fit with revelations. You’d have to stay inside until batteries ran out or a way to jam them was found or they got around to where you lived. Or they took out where they were controlled/monitored from.
Book of Revelation.
Swarms of Locust (Drones!)
We’ll each be assigned our own AI controlled drone that follows us around all day videoing our actions.
What did you think all the call of duty data going to go to waste , hell no it was ez data for a.i programming how humans move in maps , and terrain.
Flamethrower
Friendly RCXD deployed
Drone swarms, next come the Electro Magnet Grenades and EM bombs.
EMP.
Sneak peak: The new WMD...
Terminators machine
i think we know all wo they ar releasd !.
Attack of the drones
These drones must replace soldiers. They should be armed with machine guns and ammos as well as shields to protect itself from incoming bullets
"I no longer love blue skies. In fact, I now prefer grey skies. The drones do not fly when the skies are grey," a 13-year-old Pakistani boy named Zubair told Congress after he and his sister were the victim of US civilian drone strikes. Coming to... an entire planet near you.
Skynet
😂😂😂nothing a few helium balloons with 100’ fishing lines dangling can’t defeat…silly engineers. LIDAR won’t save them.
Why can't this technology be use for planets exploration like Mars and beyond?
Would be really useful in a certain strip in the middle east right now
DJI spot FPV's hunt but FPV's have limited range to the operators within the a mile. You can interrupt their signal back to the goggles on the flyer that's extremely recommended
Too expensive at this time to incorporate self-thinking drones - but most will link their camera and video feeds back to a central hub who would then access CCTV, databases and then a ground commander would execute on that. Don't think we really trust autonomous drone swarms at the moment.
EMP🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Call of duty modern warfare 3
Chinese Tiktok 2027
These armed with nuclear grenades would be a nightmare not entirely improbable.
What are nuclear grenades?
Nuclear is fake news.
Grow up, and LOSE THE DISCO SOUNDTRACK!!!
Emp devices don't reach that far in the air and most can drop anything on you. And then all the guns you have would just melt along with your bodies.
USA! USA! USA!
Why not send this robot to Ukrine
Let's face it, American's need as much help as they can get in battle. They are shocking poorly trained
You really are dense if you think american troops are poorly trained.
Oh really?
@@trextrextrex yep really mass produced quantity over quality fact
I miss Radio Shack because nowadays there's plenty of drones that are really cheap and they could be upgraded just a thought for the educated
Defeat drones by EMPs
This is the problem with America, it talks too much.
