Watch the Navy's LOCUST Launcher Fire Off a Swarm of Autonomous Drones



Last year, the Navy announced the Low-Cost UAV Swarming Technology (LOCUST) program, a plane to build a launcher that could first dozens of drones out of a tube to create a vicious swarm designed to "autonomously overwhelm an adversary."

A recent video posted to YouTube by U.S. Navy Research shows the latest demo from last month, in which the launchers just effortlessly throw a swarm of nine into the air with a serious of thwunks. It's both understated and impressive.

While the U.S. military has been utilizing large, single drones for years now, its future sights seem to be set on the potential for swarms of small, inexpensive, and expendable drones. The LOCUST system here is clearly meant for deployment from the ground or a ship, but both the Air Force and the Navy have been investigating the idea of air-launched drones and, by extension, the future motherships that might carry these little fliers as one of their primary weapons.

How these swarms actually fight, and how they will be armed, is still unknown, but it seems every more likely that little fliers like these are the future of warfare.

It's not about the camo per se, it's more about having a good durable working clothes for outdoors work. Although I agree the camo is stupid. The only thing it can hide is probably paint stains. laugh.gif

If the Navy wanted good durable work clothes, I think it will be better if they use a jumpsuit-type outer uniforms to be worn over normal clothes if only there is any outdoor work to be done. Even the US Navy is starting to realize how stupid their own NWU are.

Thoughts: Spike ATGM is estimated at about $125,000 per launcher and $80,000 per missile, about half the price of US Javelin and comparable to AT-14 Kornet which is $800,000 for 1 launcher and 10 missiles.

The initial buy of 275 launchers and 5,500 missiles would cost about $ 474.4 million of the $1b package. The license-built sets seem to incur a fee of about 20% of list price making up the rest of the contract. If spread evenly through the army the total buy of 1,800 launchers is about 4-5 launchers each battalion, replacing the Carl Gustavs they currently use.

Well we don't need quite that many. But say 100 launchers and 1,000 missiles to equip antitank platoons in our battalion weapons companies? Budget say about $100 million - thats only about 2 SU-30MKMs or 40-50 AV8 Gempita. Ok fine Javelin expensive and politically can't buy Kornet or Spike... French MMP? Swedish BILL 2?

I'd sacrifice a battalion of AV8s or 1-2 MRCA for a hard counter to Thai Oplots and Indon and Singaporean Leopards.

Pictures reveal: U.S. soldiers wear YPG badges while fighting ISIS in northern Syria

New pictures have emerged showing U.S. special forces in northern Syria with YPG ornaments on their shoulders.

This comes as U.S. President Obama said one month ago he was sending 250 elite soldiers to fight ISIS in northern Syria.

The U.S. special forces team is fighting in the northern Raqqa countryside alongside the Kurdish militias of the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) and People’s Protection Units (YPG).

These forces – backed by coalition warplanes – have announced a campaign which aims to capture the city of Raqqa from the Islamic State.

According to YPG officials, some 30,000 troops are mobilized for the Raqqa offensive which has been making modest gains towards the Islamic State capital in recent days.

Remarkably, the YPG is a sister party of the PKK; the latter group, which operates in Turkey, is otherwise considered a terrorist organization by the U.S. and NATO.

Meanwhile, Russian Marines are embedded with the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) in Homs.

The U.S. and Russia are thus backing different sides in the Syrian war although both countries claim to be spearheading efforts to defeat ISIS.

Russia, China to launch first computer-enabled anti-missile exercises

user posted image

MOSCOW, May 26 /TASS/. Russia and China have started their first joint computer anti-missile defense exercises Aerospace-Security-2016, a source at the Russian Defense Ministry press service told journalists on Thursday.

"In compliance with a decision made by the Russian Defense Ministry and China’s Ministry of National Defense, Russia and China are conducting the first joint Russian-Chinese computer-enabled command-staff anti-missile defense exercises "Aerospace Security-2016" at the scientific research center of Russian Aerospace Defense Forces. The exercise will last until May 28," the Russian Defense Ministry source said.

The Defense Ministry explained that the exercises’ main goal was to drill joint maneuvers and operations of rapid reaction anti-aircraft and anti-missile defense units of Russia and China in a bid to defend the territory from occasional and provocative strikes by ballistic and cruise missiles.

"This joint exercise is not directed against any third country," the Russian Defense Ministry stressed.

"The Russian and Chinese sides will use the results of the exercises to discuss proposals on Russian-Chinese military cooperation in the field of anti-missile defense," the press service added.
