‼️ Repelling the assault by soldiers of the 72nd OMBr named after Black Zaporozhets

Enemy armor with assault infantry flew into position. The landing party inside was tarred with a grenade launcher, those who decided to ride on top received an incredible meeting from our Heroes.

Assault group and armor destroyed.

πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦ Glory to Ukraine! Glory to the soldiers of the 72nd OMBr!

I don't know if they do this or how that might work, but it just makes me think of making a gun sight thats linked to the drone footage above.

The drone marks targets and sends realtime data to the sight which puts a marker on a digital display so the person firing the gun knows exactly where to aim before they can even see them.

This is basically the inverse of how laser guided missiles work.

[–] warbond@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Not even the inverse, yeah? We have drones that designate targets already. I imagine they'd be power hogs and you'd have some inverse square shenanigans with effectiveness, but I don't know what sorts of AT weapons they have or their capabilities. Unless Battlefield 4 was accurate, lol

[–] borari@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Yeah I guess, I was just thinking about it in the context of a person setting up a marker for a middle/drone to hone in on.

[–] warbond@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

But still! Cooperative engagement technology isn't new, so it would be very cool to see it make its way to drones and gun fire control systems.

[–] NotMyOldRedditName@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

OLED display to reduce power and simply show a directional dot with size to indicate distance?

[–] warbond@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I meant for the designation aspect. Is it a laser? Some other radiation? Power output is going to be a concern, especially with the other draws on a drone's battery. Or even relating positional data to the tanks. It's a lot of data jumping around.

[–] NotMyOldRedditName@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Ah you're right, wasn't thinking of the drone.

It'd probably need to be specific for that instead of carrying an explosive payload. Could carry a larger battery instead then
