[Netease smart news August 23 news] two years ago, the Internet crazy pass a custom drone equipped with a semi-automatic pistol shooting video, which triggered concerns including the relevant authorities including the Federal Aviation Administration. The development of this self-made device is only a matter of time, and the commercialization of this technology is also the case. Recently, Florida-based startup Duke Robotics launched the TIKAD drone, a custom multi-axis aircraft that can carry a variety of military weapons and launches, including semi-automatic rifles and grenade launchers. .
The co-founder of Duke Robotics is Raziel燗tuar, Commander of the Special Task Force of the former Israeli Defense Forces. After experiencing the fight with the terrorists hiding in the civilians, he was fully aware of the difficulties and was inspired to develop a drone system. As we have seen in recent years, launching missiles into densely populated areas often causes terrible collateral damage.
Atuar said: "The main remaining solution is to dispatch ground troops - but this will put your troops at risk and will often lead to casualties. But do we think that there will be better ways?"
According to foreign media reports, the TIKAD drone is based on an early prototype of a civilian drone and has now been developed for several years. In 2015, the successful development of the Israeli military can eliminate the designated targets. Since then, the drone has been further improved, and a dedicated stabilization system has been developed to absorb the recoil after launch of various weapons.
In an interview with foreign media, Atuar said that the current equipment can carry and launch a variety of different weapons, carrying a weight limit of 22 pounds (10 kilograms), and the accompanying promotional video shows how the drone is operated remotely. . There is still a need for someone to control drones and weapons on the other side - at least for now.
On the one hand, the prospects of reducing civilian and military casualties by deploying armed drones are attractive. On the other hand, it is undeniable that drones equipped with machine guns are absolutely scary to fly in the air.
It is reported that at present, the company is still seeking investors to expand its business, but the report said that the Israeli military has placed an order to purchase an unknown number of drones. The company is also promoting the system to the US military. (Selected from: New Lan tlas Author: Rich Uu aridy compilation: NEW YORK see foreign intelligence platform compiler revision: handing)
