Tanks are going the way of the battleship
They been that way since probably vietnam, but the MIC exists to transfer public funds to private executives, not to build effective armed forces.
This is quite the turning point.
War becoming cheaper to wage as these machines become obsolete is good news for the Proletariat.
Conversely - those FPVs and quads with thermals that drop grenades are a pretty bad news for the proletariat
Soon it’ll be drone vs drone, with the operators working at home chasing each other with FPV goggles.
If only. But methinks a drone is a more difficult target than people trying to hide from them
How long before Iran is sending missiles toward Israel that are equipped with anti-anti-missile missiles? Then it’s an anti-missile arms race all the way down.
You mean like a false target? Pretty sure ICBMs at least have those already, specifically to ensure payload is not intercepted
Seriously, just a quiet quad copter with a fairly sensitive microphone can hear these things from miles away.
Turbine engines in tracked vehicles have a very distinctive sound.
