I'm not saying it's new technology. The patriot missile costs $4m each. None of the drones Ukraine is using have this tech.
The new thing is that it's available for purchase for a reasonable price.
- shakow 4mo agoWhy would they put phased arrays on UAVs? They are typically using beam-forming antennas + cheap gimbals for the same purpose. Phased arrays are nice when you want to scan a large angular surface very fast; when it comes down to optimizing RF radiation toward your ground station, a gimbal is cheaper, simpler, and works fine.
