FYI, I'm on an absolute beast of a machine and my browser locked up while trying to view that page. When I mean beast, I mean beast.


Oh nooo :( what's the specs of your computer? I'm gonna try and optimize this further tonight!


Specs: beast


hahahaha


A larger version of these should be developed to take down the Orlan 10 Russian drones. Interestingly enough, the creator of this interceptor drone was born in Kiev.


At this point you're just thinking of a crappier, more expensive, electric MANPAD. It would not be trivial to make one of these that can climb to 1km and acquire a target 2-3km away at over 200km/h.

You'd be better off with a solid propellant, saclos guidance, and a fragmentation warhead.


Wouldn't even need propellant for these, Rheinmetall has some ammo they program as it's leaving the barrel to fragment just a couple metres before the target


Yes, the issue is guidance though, bullets that can maneuver are extremely expensive also.


After viewing the Optical Remote Control video (the last on the page), I wonder if they only use artificial turds for training purposes, but drop live turds on actual Russian jammers?


Not helpful for overfishing.


The article mentioned the fish were farmed.....


An improved timeGained equation.

timeGained = (manualTimeSpent * n) - (timeToAutomate)


This forget (at least) three factors:

- Repetitive manual labor is prone to failure. If failure is expansive and automated task could be better just for the additional safety.

- Once it's automatized the frequency at which the task is done can be increased.

- Once something is automatized, other things become easier to automatized.
