The key element of drones: flexibility.




As we know the drone. It can transport pizza to the right balcony. But the thing that we don’t normally think about is this. The same drone that delivers pizza at a certain point in the city. It can also transport grenades or bombs to the same point. This is the reason. For why this AI-controlled Skyways drone is so interesting. The drone can transport equipment and food. Into the precisely right position. The drone can make the same thing. With grenades and depth charges. Or it’s pizza can be replaced by using the radar antenna. So those drones can operate as miniature AWACS platforms. 

Those drones with radar systems can see at least larger drones. That flies below them. The radar observation drone can map underground tunnels. A swarm of those drones can communicate. With command, control, and communication platforms. This means that the AWACS platform outsourced its radar to other aircraft.  And that helps the crew to survive if the anti-radiation missile locks on those radars. 

So that makes those drones very versatile. Even if they are standard versions. The bigger drone. It can also operate with other drones. The bigger drone can carry a smaller drone. 

This means that the quadcopter strike drone can be dropped near the target. And those drones. They can use those drones. As aerospace relay satellites. The drone that flies over the area can also send a signal to eavesdropping systems.  To deliver the data that they recorded. Those “sleeping systems”. They can be extremely dangerous. The scanner doesn´t see those passive systems that record speech or data. When the system sends a radio signal, it sends recorded data to that drone. 

Or. It can pull another drone or missile behind it. That kind of system can launch the drone from the right position. And that increases their ability to operate. The pizza drone can also drop a quadcopter into the right position. And those copters can operate as reconnaissance or kamikaze missions. In pure reconnaissance missions, drones can be equipped with microphones or seismic sensors. That can deliver information to the command centers. 

This ability makes drones more versatile than traditional systems. The kamikaze drone can also send reconnaissance data for its operators. The thing about the quadcopters is that. Those drones. They can also transport guns like automatic pistols or small submachine guns. So they can be the most dangerous things in the wrong hands.

Radio transmission is the weak point of modern military drones.

  Radio transmission is the weak point of modern military drones. 


The new British military jet-propelled "Hydra 400"quadcopter is an interesting design. 


The new jet-propelled drone is an interesting design. The jet-propelled quadcopter can fly fast. And it can raise more cargo from the ground than electric engine drones. There is a possibility that these kinds of quadcopters can used as "quad autogyros". 

In those designs, the quadcopters use their quad rotors for lift-off and landing. During a long-distance flight. The drone can use free-rotation propellers and a jet engine. And that thing makes those drones fast. 

Those drones can used as kamikaze drones. Or they can launch missiles like Javelins if they are connected to them. The kamikaze quadcopters are interesting tools because they can observe the area. And if there are no targets those drones can return to base. 

But if there are some kind of targets the drone can make it's surveillance mission and then attack targets when their flight time ends. The drones can use an image-recognition homing system that allows them to take out targets with very high accuracy. 


Above Hydra-drone. 

The military is interested in independently operating drones is that those drones don't require full-time communication between the drone and HQ. The Ukraine war shows how dangerous full-time radio communication is. If the electronic intelligence finds the transmitter, the enemy can turn every cannon against those command centers. So the kamikaze-recon drone can transmit data to the command center and then dive against the target. And that helps to hide the place of the command system. 

The full-time operating radio transmissions are dangerous for drone swarms. The drone swarm where hundreds of members is a suitable target for large anti-aircraft missiles or AA grenades. Similar ELINT systems that are used for track radio transmitters also aim AA cannons at those drone swarms. High-power radio waves can jam the data communication in that drone swarm. 

Those missiles could equipped with a similar homing system as HARM (High-speed Anti Radiation missiles). The HARM-type missiles are also deadly against any radio transmitters. 

Normally HARM is shot from the aircraft. Portable shoulder-launched Stinger missiles also have a so-called "Anti-radiation variant" called Stinger ARM (Anti-Radiation Missiles) that can detect and destroy enemy radiation sources. That makes radio telephones missile magnets if the enemy can track their positions by using radio detectors. 

But there is the possibility that those missiles can be mounted on rocket launchers or warships. Warships can also use those missiles against enemy surface combat unit's radars. And that means the artillery rockets and grenades can have a warhead that can detect radio transmitters.

The mighty fly drone is the next-generation logistics.




The Mighty fly drone can deliver 45 kg cargo about 965 kilometers. There is no mentioned one-way operational distance. Or is it two ways operational distance of that drone? 

And the drone can lift off and land vertically. The GPS and advanced avionics allow this small drone craft can deliver pizza from Helsinki to Rovaniemi with very high accuracy. The Mighty fly will transform logistics for many purposes. And one thing is clear. These drones are effective tools in surveillance missions in private and governmental sectors. 

The long-distance operational capacity allows this type of drone to guard areas from remote stations. And they can carry LLC(Low-Level Light Camera) systems that can uncover prohibited things. Infrared cameras are making it possible to search the pollution and missing persons. 

Small-size radars can install under the drone. By using that system. The drone can detect underwater caves or tunnels. 

The official and illegal private surveillance teams can use drones to shadow people from their workplace to home. The drones that are equipped with laser microphones can record discussions. 

And the compact electronic surveillance systems can also dismantle information that hidden eavesdropping tools record. The same systems can dismantle information that trail cameras store in nature. So the thing is that the recorders that are recording birds' songs can easily transform to eavesdrop tools that are hard to detect. 




Regular eavesdropping tools send electromagnetic radiation all the time. And that makes them easy to detect. The protective systems notice those eavesdropping tools called "bugs" because of radio transmission. 

Modern systems are recording information in their mass memories. And then the drone, satellite, or some manned system will send an order that the bug must dismantle its data. The microchip-controlled eavesdropping tool sends a so-called burst. The burst lasts less than a second. And that makes modern eavesdropping tools hard to detect. 

But this kind of drone can also target smart weapons to manned- and unmanned attack aircraft. Or they can drop SDBs:s (Small Diameter Bombs) on precise targets. The same system that leads pizzas down can use to release those SDBs that are effective against at least APCs (Armored Personnel Carriers) or helicopters and aircraft. 

As you see, drones are multipurpose tools. And the world is a race between defenders and attackers. The private military contractors are interested in this kind of system the same way as they are interested in surveillance systems. The criminals can use drones to take images of their next target. Or they can deliver weapons and other prohibited tools to prisons by using drones.
