Russian Ukrainian drone turns into a 'child', Chinese quadcopter self destructing drone appears, firepower explodes
The ongoing Ukrainian war has almost changed the style of the Russia Ukraine contact line with the introduction of commercial quadcopter drones. The role of commercial drones is not only for intelligence reconnaissance, but also for use as mini bombers, and even more exaggeratedly, for suicide attacks. When a quadcopter commercial drone or a time traveling aircraft is used for suicide attacks, not only can it be controlled by humans in the loop, but the price is also very cheap.
You can imagine the result of a time traveling aircraft costing only 1500-3000 yuan destroying a Russian military Tu-22M strategic bomber. By comparison, any traditional suicide drone or cruise missile costs tens of thousands of yuan, while advanced anti tank missiles from abroad can cost over 100000 yuan.
So, the suicide cruise missiles that both Russia and Ukraine can really afford now are not the Lancet and Shahd-136, but commercial drones modified with time traveling machines to carry explosives, and both Russia and Ukraine coincidentally rely on spare parts purchased from the Chinese drone market.
This raises a question: Will China, as the most developed commercial drone industry, also launch a self destruct drone based on quadcopters? What will its performance and price look like?
Recently, at the China Drone Conference, Chinese manufacturers have delivered satisfactory results, making the time traveling aircraft used by Russia and Ukraine a "child's child" when compared. The small battlefield suicide high-speed drone publicly released by China weighs only 1.8 kilograms, can reach a speed of up to 174 kilometers per hour, has a relay time of up to 30 minutes, can carry a one pound warhead, and can also be controlled by human in the loop.
How much destructive power does a one pound warhead have? The explosive power of this suicide drone is even greater than that of a Chinese 82MM mortar shell with a charge of 420 grams. It can effectively kill the top or tail of light armored vehicles and tanks.
Even more exaggerated, Chinese manufacturers have customized a portable backpack for this suicide drone, allowing a soldier to easily carry four self destructing high-speed drones for long-range combat missions. We can imagine that a soldier only needs to carry four self destructing high-speed drones, and even a single soldier can destroy four planes in a single operation behind enemy lines. Or commanding four drones to attack four main battle tanks, this exchange ratio is really exaggerated.
According to videos released by Chinese manufacturers, these four drones can also be deployed continuously, launching seamless and continuous attacks on a target, ensuring that they can destroy the opponent even if they have anti-aircraft firepower.
We can take inventory of the combat targets of this suicide quadcopter drone, including individual soldiers, personnel gathering areas, artillery positions, ammunition storage points, light armored vehicles, tanks, self-propelled howitzers, and rocket launchers. When special forces use this self destructing drone for enemy operations behind enemy lines, they can also launch suicide attacks on outdoor targets such as airports and military factories, serving as a weapon for enemy operations behind enemy lines.
