Chapter 1268 Anti-UAV Weapons
The same is true for drones.
The development of drones in China was relatively fast, and it was also after the mid-to-late 1980s.
And it really entered the fast lane of development after the 1990s.
After entering the millennium, drones have developed very rapidly, and more and more drones have been developed.
Whether it is military drones or civilian drones, they have shown explosive growth.
In the army, drone technicians are at least college-level, and more are undergraduates, and even graduate students and doctoral students!
These are the top forces in the application of military drones!
And because military drones are more in the exploratory and experimental stage, and have not been equipped on a large scale, more commanders and fighters know about drones, but they don’t have a clear understanding.
In the exercises in recent years, drones have appeared more and more in the exercises.
But this time, it is the first time that so many drones have participated in the war.
Reconnaissance aircraft, ground drones, jamming drones, communication drones, suicide drones
The number of drones invested this time and the number of drone types have created a new record.
When I saw an entire infantry battalion being scrapped by drones, the shock was huge.
When I saw the rebels holding rifles and firing at drones in the air, but they failed to hit the drones, fled in panic, and even made desperate screams of fear, and were directly killed by the explosion of the "Bee" drone, the shock was very strong.
Even the commanders and fighters who paid attention to drones, but were not in the field of drones, were surprised to find that Chinese drones had developed to this extent.
When they saw that the drone launched missiles and destroyed an artillery position, many people realized that drones had developed to a point that could not be ignored.
The war mode has unknowingly discovered new changes. With the development of drones, the battlefield will become more complicated and bloodier.
If it is between major powers, it is probably difficult to conduct large-scale military operations as before.
Trench warfare and the like will also become more difficult.
The side with technological advantages will have greater advantages over the side with relatively backward technology.
Think about it, even if you dig trenches and hide in them, the trenches can avoid artillery shells, but suicide drones can fly into the trenches and explode.
There are also reconnaissance drones on the battlefield, which will greatly enhance the battlefield reconnaissance capabilities.
Knowing the enemy and knowing yourself, you will never be defeated in a hundred battles!
This principle is still applicable even now.
Whoever has a stronger battlefield reconnaissance capability will have greater initiative and greater battlefield advantage.
The enemy's troop deployment and troop mobilization are simply difficult to hide in front of drones.
Even in the night battles that used to be a headache, the combat does not need to be carried out only by soldiers wearing night vision goggles, but can be completely handed over to drones, which launch attacks at night.
Whether it is killing or tiring the enemy, it can play a huge role.
But if it is the opponent's drone, how to defend? !
Hiss~~
Many commanders and fighters couldn't help but take a breath.
They found that the only thing they could think of was to use anti-aircraft machine guns and anti-aircraft guns to shoot drones.
But apart from the efficiency issue, this conversion ratio seems to be not worth it.
I am afraid that the anti-aircraft machine gun bullets and anti-aircraft gun bullets fired are much more expensive than a drone shot down.
As for anti-aircraft missiles, they didn't even think about it.
Even the cheapest anti-aircraft missiles would cost hundreds of thousands of RMB, but this kind of "Bee" drone doesn't look like it costs hundreds of thousands of RMB, and it even seems that the price is probably less than 100,000 RMB.
Sure enough, when a commander asked about the cost of this "Bee" drone and was told that the current cost is 20,000 RMB per drone, all the commanders showed bitterness.
If drones are mass-produced, the price will probably drop to 10,000 RMB or even lower.
Two or three "Bee" drones can kill an enemy soldier, and there is profit in this matter.
If there are hundreds of thousands or even millions of "Bee" drones on the battlefield, the commanders feel numb just thinking about this scene.
How can we fight this?
Using anti-aircraft guns to shoot at "Bee" drones is like using anti-aircraft guns to shoot at mosquitoes.
Using anti-aircraft missiles, such a small target, I'm afraid the hit rate will drop a lot, and even if two anti-aircraft missiles shoot down a drone, it will be a big loss.
"Do we have any defense facilities now?" a commander asked.
"Next, please look at the big screen!" said the seminar host.
A video appeared on the big screen, showing a camouflaged vehicle with a strange shape, because this military vehicle had no guns or cannons, only a large flat plate that could move.
Then a video appeared, that was a drone flying over, and then one drone after another fell to the ground, and everyone couldn't help but look confused.
"This is a high-power microwave weapon system carried by a high-mobility vehicle. It can rotate and release high-energy microwaves in a large area in the air." The seminar host said: "We know that small and medium-sized drones, especially micro drones, their components are completely unable to resist high-energy microwave attacks."
"That is to say, as long as we drive this high-power microwave weapon on a high-speed vehicle to the battlefield, a golden bell-shaped microwave protection net can be formed on the wide front, and any drones like flies and mosquitoes cannot fly in."
The host of the seminar said: "In addition, there are vehicle-mounted laser weapons, which are specifically targeted at small and micro drones."
In the video, a camouflaged vehicle is equipped with a laser weapon, and then a small drone in the air, and this small drone directly smokes and burns.
This vehicle-mounted laser weapon can only be used to defend small drones at low altitudes. If it is a higher target, there is no way.
Because the power limits the power of vehicle-mounted laser weapons.
Everyone couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief when they saw these two videos.
Fortunately, as a major and powerful country in drones, China not only has sharp spears, but also solid shields.
Otherwise, future wars will really be a headache.
The three-day seminar that followed was very intense, and everyone conducted research and discussions around the application and defense of drones on the battlefield.
Some officers and soldiers proposed that since drones can be imaged through infrared, can we use hot packs to disguise infrared heat sources to consume drones?
After all, as long as the hot packs are attached to dummies, in the woods, or in the grass, disguised as infrared heat sources to guide enemy drones to attack, the enemy drones can be consumed.
This is a bit like the ancient straw boat borrowing arrows.
And how much does a hot pack cost! (End of this chapter)
