Russia has integrated a neural network into kamikaze drones to effectively select a target to hit.

February 12 2024 6

Domestic engineers have developed a neural network for integration into kamikaze drones for the most accurate identification of the target equipment. Thanks to the innovation, drones will be able to recognize NATO equipment.

The development is called a “neural network for autonomous control and analysis” (NACA) and allows you to detect Leopard, Abrams tanks, Bradley infantry fighting vehicles and other Western equipment. The program is installed on the UAV control equipment, which receives a video signal from the drone’s camera. The neural network determines the type of equipment and its coordinates and sends this information to the operator’s console.

In the interview RIA News the head of the development company Hardbury-Rusfactor, Alexey German, said that NAKA will significantly increase the effectiveness of kamikaze drones, and in the future the neural network will be trained to identify all types of equipment in the enemy’s arsenal. Autonomous target selection by a drone will allow it to bypass enemy electronic warfare systems, and therefore the effectiveness of such developments is obvious.

The developer’s representative clarified that after the completion of a special military operation, the neural network will find application in civilian life. For example, it can be implemented on agricultural UAVs to search for lost animals.

In general, as in advertising... not bad, but not ice! Such a “neural network” is similar to “Hephaestus”, which they “boasted” of a couple of years ago! Instead of equipping aerial bombs with an inertial-satellite system and seeker, they decided to save money by installing SVP-24 “cabinets with electronics” on aircraft (how can we not remember about “microcircuits with handles”!)... Or why the “wild West” with Israel They play around with missiles with seekers, but in Russia “they don’t shoot with radars” and radio control is “our everything”!? As a result... aerial bombs with UMPC are all the rage, but who and when, how often have you heard about the successful use of the SVP-24 "Hephaestus"?! As for the “neural network” of NAKA, then it’s “the same thing”! The drone has a minimum of equipment and is inexpensive; and complex and expensive equipment is at the “control tower”! In general, inexpensive and great... but as long as the radio communication channel between the UAV and the “dispatch” is not clogged with interference until the target is detected! For now it can do just that... after all, A said! But then you will have to talk to B; those. Install the "neural network" on a UAV! And for this it is necessary to have a full-fledged and inexpensive production of complex electronics!

  in the original source it is written like this - for integration into a UAV:
  
  ... a neural network for integration into kamikaze drones for the most accurate identification of targeted equipment...

    That’s what it says in the original source - for integration into a UAV:
    
    I read the information not only in the “Reporter”, but also in other Internet sources... I understood that a video signal is received from the drone to the “drone drive” equipment, where the NAKA is built in.. This “neural network” device determines the type of equipment and displays the result to the operator's console... If this is the desired target, then the operator “fixes” the aiming mark on the monitor (display) on the target image, thereby giving a command to the drone to auto-lock the target! Further, the functioning of a two-way communication channel between the UAV and the operator’s equipment is not necessary! It is possible to operate the control panel in automatic mode, practically without operator participation, but with two-way communication between the drone and equipment with built-in NAKA! That is, I assumed that the NAKA equipment remains at the UAV ground control station!

  Hephaestus was unearthed by ISIS if you don’t know.

    Yes, I don’t know... It looks like you don’t know either, since you said such nonsense!

It turns out that every UAV manufacturing company in our country is forced to reinvent its own wheel. Moreover, the Zala company already has this. Why not make a common open solution for all our UAV development companies?
