Military Technology

If it is said that the "crazy bee" drone swarm attack system developed by the Institute of Equipment and Equipment is used for combat or battlefield strikes.

Well, this "Battlefield Sweeper" developed by Wu Hao and the others is used in small-scale battles. The uses of the two are different, and the cost is also very different.

Although the core technologies all rely on the cluster control technology, there is a big difference between the two.

First of all, the swarm attack system of the 'Kangbee' UAV has a wider coverage of airspace and a larger swarm, so it is less affected by subtle terrain.

In terms of offensive methods, it is also more direct and straightforward. Find the target and destroy the target. If one is not good, then there will be a few more. Anyway, it is not a problem for a huge cluster.

This is not the case for "battlefield sweepers" that deal with small-scale battlefields and battles, because the use environment and users are different, so the swarm of such small drones cannot be too large.

And because of the small size of this small high-speed UAV, the battery life is very limited, generally only ten minutes.

This limits the number and coverage of the swarm, so ideally, this small high-speed drone strikes the swarm, usually around two to one hundred.

Below that number is another single small attack drone. For example, in the military movie we showed earlier, the special forces used small drones to attack the enemy's mortar positions.

In fact, to put it bluntly, it is a small drone equipped with a grenade. It can attack any target within a radius of one kilometer under the control of the user.

This distance has reached the attack distance of mortar rocket barrels, and it is far beyond the effective shooting distance of some grenades and rifles.

More importantly, it can be controlled at will. That is to say, it can, like a missile, attack the targets it wants to attack under the control of people.

And the flight speed of nearly 300 kilometers per hour makes it difficult for the enemy to intercept.

Therefore, this kind of small high-speed attack UAV has also become an important firepower weapon in special operations of various countries, and it has become a weapon for anti-sniper and anti-guerrilla team attacks.

Of course, this small drone is not without its weaknesses. Battery life, light weight, and limited ammunition are his weaknesses. Moreover, the requirements for control and hands-on ability are relatively high, and the operator needs to practice many times to adapt.

more than this number,

That's a large swarm attack drone. The tasks undertaken have also reached the battlefield, the campaign and even the strategic-level key target strike stage, which is controlled by professional troops.

The 'battlefield sweeper' developed by Wu Hao and the others is between the two. A small-scale living force against the enemy.

Compared with the small high-speed attack drone that needs to be controlled by a special person, this battlefield sweeper only needs the user to launch, set the corresponding reconnaissance and strike area, and then let it go after launching, and the small high-speed attack drone cluster will be used. Automatically search in the set area to find and attack enemy targets.

Moreover, this drone can also be equipped with identification friend or foe technology. On the battlefield where the enemy and the enemy are mixed, it can automatically identify our and enemy targets for selective attacks.

For example, our convoy or combat team is ambushed by the enemy. Usually in this environment, our counterattack is difficult to launch, and the battlefield sweeper can play its role at this time. Our personnel only need to hide in the bunkers and release these small high-speed attack drones, and then they can search and attack enemy personnel targets in the delimited area.

Although the individual power of this small high-speed drone will be relatively small, it is attacking enemy personnel. If the accuracy is high enough, it can even explode close to the enemy's most vulnerable face, neck, crotch and other lethal areas to kill or injure the enemy.

In fact, in the current combat concept, the power of individual firepower equipment is no longer required. Whether it is a grenade or a grenade, the charge has been reduced.

From some data, it can be clearly seen that the charge of grenades in World War II was basically more than 100 grams, but now the charge of hand grenades equipped in various countries is about 50 to 60 grams, which has more than doubled. .

In addition to being convenient to carry and carry more quantities, it is also to be able to kill the enemy as much as possible. Because in combat, killing an enemy is more useful than killing an enemy.

Although their 'Battle Sweeper' is relatively small, the individual attack drones are also relatively small. However, compared to the swarm attack system of the 'Hurricane Bee' drone, this 'Battlefield Sweeper' is more difficult.

The difficulty of the swarm attack system of the "Crazy Bee" UAV is in the control and management of large swarms of UAVs, and their battlefield sweeper is in the timely capture and processing of information.

First of all, the first problem is how such small high-speed attack drones can maintain normal high-speed flight in complex terrain, such as jungles, cities, and ruins, to avoid hitting obstacles.

In this environment, there are many and complex obstacles. How can small high-speed attack drones travel freely and at high speed without being affected, which requires special technology to solve.

In the racing competition of the cross-machine, it is controlled by the contestants wearing special first-view video glasses. The speed of the traversing machine and the smoothness of traversing obstacles are completely determined by the individual reaction control of the operator.

Even experienced and skilled players will often "explode" (Note 1) in complex environments.

Therefore, to overcome this problem, it is necessary to let the drone detect the surrounding environment and obstacles at all times, and quickly plan a feasible flight route autonomously.

The best solution is to install related sensors for drones, such as distance sensors, radar, image sensors and other hardware devices, so that drones can detect obstacles around them.

It is not enough to just find these obstacles, but also to perform fast arithmetic processing. And this requires optimization on the software. It is not enough to process this information correctly, it must be processed quickly or even in real time. If the processing speed cannot keep up with the flight speed of the drone, the information obtained will not be timely and the aircraft will be bombed.

This is only a problem in flight. If a small high-speed attack drone achieves autonomous combat, it must find the target, and how to find the target is also a problem that needs to be solved urgently.

Usually, the task or task of finding the target is determined by humans. But now it has to be handed over to the drone to solve it by itself, which has undoubtedly increased the difficulty a lot.

[Note 1: bomber, model aircraft term. Generally speaking, the abnormal fall of the flight model due to improper operation or machine failure is called a bombing. 】
