Arfcom cheers gleefully as Russia loses a navy ship to a cheap drone…… not realizing this cats out of the bag and this same shit will result in drone attacks on the U.S military the same as have been happening to Russian military. In the very near future, the families of U.S military personnel can watch high resolution video on the internet, news, YouTube, etc , Live video of their husbands / sons / dads / wives / daughters / mothers , U.S military personnel being blown up , killed, maimed etc on 4k video via drones dropping grenades on their vehicle / trench / office building, small cheap drones sinking entire multi billion dollar U.S. navy and U.S flagged ships in the near future. There won’t be anymore cheap / easy Iraq style battles / victories for the USA in the future, no tank vs tank battles, just endless bloody fights where cheap drones controlled from a mile / 100 miles / 1000 miles by a operator, or controlled totally by AI blow people up while shitting, eating, typing paperwork, dropped into your head, flown thru your window, sneak in and destroy entire fuel depots, ammo dumps, hospitals, factories, etc, and especially when combined with AI, we won’t fare any better against this type shit than the Russians have.

Quote HistoryQuoted: Install additional .50bmgs on US ships, bring back the Oerlikon 20 mm cannon an 40mm bofors. An put thermals on them..doesn't need to be high tech for drone speed boats.an if US no longer has depth charges for underwater attacks buy Mk11 Mod 3 from the brits. I suspect every ship will have an assortment of seaborne and airborne drones that can be set to patrol the ships safe zone. Drone swarms will likely be a problem for a long time to come. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Sad but true.  Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: Quoted: I understand the point but are we not supposed to cheer when an invading military loses a key asset? I feel bad for the innocent Russian conscript kids who died in this attack, but Russia caused their deaths not Ukraine. I would assume anti-drone tech and weapons are one of the highest priorities in every professional military now. Once upon a time the right would cheer when a major enemy of America got bitch slapped. Now there is a contingent on the right that actively cheers for America's enemies.. Sad but true. It's fucking strange... Weak minds are easily corrupted by online propaganda. To see so many, even here act that is disgusting. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: To all the people freaking out about drones, I've got to ask a very serious question... Are you stupid? How the fuck is that ANY different than a missile or bomb dropped from a plane way up in the sky or launched from 60 miles away? What about a hypersonic cruise missile? What about when we used predator drones more than 20 years ago? Our use of night vision decades before opposing forces were able to acquire it? None of this shit is new, and you could argue that it's been going on since human beings started throwing objects at each other. The difference is that just about any idiot can fly a drone into a target miles away now vs needing the backing of a military or government. That's a relatively new development. |

The West has a number of weapons that can be used on drone boats and/or suicide speed boats. We started working on the problem after the USS Cole. Some of the systems include upgrading the heck out of Phalanx so it has a robust antisurface capability, 25mm and 30mm chain guns, hellfire missiles in vertical launchers (LCS only now, but they could easily be put on other vessels) laser systems of various types, the Brits stuck Martlet missiles on their chain gun mounts, we also have helicopters on all of our ships that can carry several weapon systems that can take out small boats. We also have some impressive naval EW systems for soft kills. The Russians don't really have any of that. The closest they come are their CIWS variant, but it does not have the optics for rapidly maneuvering surface targets and mounting PKM'S on their decks. The two are not the same. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: You're using it incorrectly in two ways. Firstly, the phrase "letting the cat out of the bag" implies a secret has been let out. Unless you're suggesting drones were a secret, the colloquialism you're looking for is "you're not putting the genie back in the bottle", the past version of "the genie is out of the bottle", which is more related to a major development or change that quickly become widespread and will never be undone. Secondly, you're using it in past reverse which people simply do not say with that phrase. A similar idiom in meaning is to "spill the beans", and again nobody really says "the beans aren't going back in the pot." "The cat is not going back into the bag" sounds like something Balki would say for laughs. To people who grew up in the United States speaking English these are just natural idioms. Easy to get tripped up on if you've studied English and are trying to impersonate a native speaker. EMERGENCY, every body to get from street! |

Nevermind, how may an enemy like China use drones to strike civilians, or our future/coming dystopian-1984 gov. use drones against anyone with wrong-think. Drones, AI, neural-links. Maybe I wasn't born in such a great time of history.... People have no idea what is coming. Everyone talks about home invasions!?! Home invasions with 2-4 drones supporting the group? Car-jackings, and you're just being tracked home. Gangs using armed drones. Suucide drones being used on the streets. The God Emperor will end the evil thinking machines in time. And yet Paul still had to be trained on defending against a hunter-seeker. He did quite well. Damn, I'm pumped for Dune Part 2. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I wonder how long it will be until we get a serial killer using drones to kill his victims..... How would you even catch the guy? What if some terrorist flies them into the presidential motorcade or something? The things can literally kill tanks from what I've seen. The multiple antennas you've seen from multiple vehicles in the motorcade, aren't for shits and giggles. That said...terminal EO guidance from COTS drones with something like a SADARM puck each, can't be that hard to deploy. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: It's hard to tell how fast that sank, but I'm talking sailors in the last frames with the ship standing up. Noone jumped overboard or life rafts? A ton of those dudes were turned into fish food when the magazines exploded |

Quote HistoryQuoted: It's hard to tell how fast that sank, but I'm talking sailors in the last frames with the ship standing up. Noone jumped overboard or life rafts? The surface sea water temp is 50 F in the Black Sea right now, but it’s 37 F in the Sea of Azov (and down to 33 near Mariupol). If any of those vodka sponges jumped overboard, their body temperatures were also equalized in the 30’s before the sun came up. That ship broke in half, so I really doubt any of the liferafts (located around amid ships on the upper deck area) got deployed. We also don’t know what the last drone did. It was filming the bow section sink. It’s possible it waited around to sink a rescue boat, but it’s also possible it drove in to the debris field and detonated to wipe out any swimmers/rafts

Quote HistoryQuoted: Last known photo of the Moskva just before she sank https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/135749/sank_my-2908044.jpg Ukrainian 'flagship' once they realized Russia had actually started the SMO against them -  (they scuttled it immediately and without even 'trying' to actually launch it anywhere or put up any sort of 'fight' with it...) You guys really don't want to talk about the ships their 'Navy' is currently down to.  |
