Pretty cool how this was being made for mortars and then it worked well for this

Fractional Giraffes

It’s 2000 1/2giraffes

Well I meant the bus, but I think you’re onto something there, we just need to remove the back legs too!

What if there was no front? Like, if the front fell off?

What about giraffes?

The U.S. Pentagon is preventing the Russian military from using Starlink internet terminals operated on the battlefield in Ukraine, John Plumb, Assistant Secretary of Defense for Space Policy at the U.S. Department of Defense, said in an interview with Bloomberg on May 9.

“At this time we have successfully countered Russian use, but I am certain Russia will continue to try and find ways to exploit Starlink and other commercial communications systems,” Plumb said. "It will continue to be a problem, I think we’ve wrapped our heads around it and found good solutions with both Starlink and Ukraine.”

SpaceX is working with the DoD on this and even the DoD thinks it’s going to be an on going problem.

What do you call something that can stop 9mm bullets? It’s not resistant to 9mm it’s bullet proof.

So maybe it really just needs a qualifier like 9mm bullet proof.

But ya, calling it bullet proof without a qualifier is a bit much. Also not the glass, only the sides. 9mm side door bullet proof.

For anyone curious. Domestic cost is $20k.

So that’s still like a 50 to 1 cost ratio on the kill, and I guess that doesn’t include ordinance cost.

Where’s the drone watching the drone watching the drone?

That show was awesome.

I think that’s partially why even though they can, they still require a human to make the kill decision.

Once the drone makes the decision itself it’s a whole other game.

Short of full on AI controlled, I imagine in the near future we’ll see AI handling the target tracking and shooting once aquired and a human will authorize the targets.

Shit, you’re right.

Now we just need some missle recursion and the war is a slam dunk win!

No its 17 launchers and each launcher has 8 launchers, so 136 launchers.

Useless without missles though. So many launchers!

I had to check, did they mean launchers or batteries.

Are you that daft?

It was a joke about how stupid it would be to only be launchers.

OP wasn’t sure and had to verify for us.

OP wasn’t sure if they were sending the missles until they read the article.

I made a what I thought was funny comment about how they were only going to send the launchers, and fuck the missles.

Edit: also in format of NO SOUP FOR YOU, but I should have left the “though” off for that.

It was a joke based off what OP said…

You need AA? Here’s 17 launchers! NO MISSLES FOR YOU THOUGH!

watching the FPV perspective, I would be so sick trying to pilot these things.

Also that went on forever, I don’t understand how it was able to carry so much.
