Directors do everything on their own: one performs recreconaissance, finds a goal and provides route to it. Other drones then attack it, independently determining the moment of bullet reset.
The ZSU is increasingly attacking enemy’s equipment and infrastructure using the technology of rotating drones based on artificial intelligence. This allows drones autonomously coordinates to attack without direct management of the operator. On Tuesday, September 2, the Wall Street Journal wrote.
According to the publication, the Ukrainian company Swarmer developed the software in which the drones were able to determine the impact of the impact, adapt to changes, for example, in the case of battery discharge of one of the devices, and perform group tasks. This technology is a new phase in the war of the drone, as it allows ten -ten or thousands of devices to break the enemy’s target defense -from a separate object in the city.
For example, the publication provides a recent evening operation, which includes three drones, which has been able to unite when to attack Russia’s position. According to Sergei Kuprienko, the general director of the swarmer, at the beginning of the task, the operator moves the target search area to the drone system and gives the command to attack it after the discovery.
Plus, the drones do everything independently: one performs a reconnection, finds a goal and provides a route to it. Other drones then attack it, independently determining the moment of bullet reset. It is noted that the attack was carried out by large quadrocopters that could drop 25 small bombs or grenades along the trench line.
Company software allows you to reduce the number of people involved: instead of nine operators in standard mode, with the swarmer system there are three enough – a planner, navigator and operator.
The ZSU official, who uses swarmer technology, said his unit used it more than a hundred times. Three drones are commonly used, but other units are launched up to eight devices at the same time. The test was conducted with groups up to 25 drones. The swarmer is also preparing to try a lot of 100 drones.
The use of the swarm avoids disruption of the enemy’s signal, as the drones are fixed on their own to close range.
However, there are some absence of this technology. In particular, the use of artificial intelligence in battle conditions brings fears that automatic systems may be able to unite decisions that affect the life or death of both military and civilians.
Also, the use of drones with such a system makes them more expensive, which may negatively affect their mass purchase. In addition, there are some problems with the swarmer software. According to the Ukrainian official, at a certain stage, drones exchanged excess information that their network was overloaded.
The technology was first used by Defense Forces for mining about a year ago. However, today it is increasingly used for Russian military strikes, equipment and infrastructure.
Earlier it was reported that Ukrainian developers created drones that could “talk” with each other during the battle and fight “Roem” like a team.
