Ukraine's AI Drones Are Making War Much Deadlier for Russia
- bell-cot 3y ago> Ukraine’s new drones-first strategy didn’t go unnoticed, or unanswered. As the number of Ukrainian FPV drones spiked earlier this year, Russia scoured its arsenal for anything that might help it defeat the drones. It settled on the RP-377, a backpack-mounted radio-jammer that broadcasts hundreds of watts of noise along the most popular frequencies for radio communications. Obvious counter-measure: Anti-radiation munitions, homing in on the jammer's signal. That's ~70-year-old technology, so what's the deal here? I'd bet the Ukrainian aren't using "AI" just because they want to be the cool kids in the war.
