Wow. I get the complexities of this, but I’m surprised that we’ve never done 30 before.
I had presumed that Shock & Awe with drones would be 100+ .
- throwaway4good 5y agoDon’t they do light shows with thousands of drones nowadays?
- oneoff786 5y agoI think the idea is that it’s a dynamically pathed swarm attacking another swarm. Not the pre configured stuff at the Olympics. These things are also ~30 lbs
- verdverm 5y agoThey have done tests with 100+ drone swarms. This is the biggest "air launched" swarm, meaning they are launching from tubes on helicopters rather than ground based systems. That being said, I think calling this the largest is wrong https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VTgJC-DqMFI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VTgJC-DqMFI
