The fact is this. Artificial intelligence is a computer program that automatizes certain actions in robots. And that makes it the next-generation tool for weapon systems. Artificial intelligence is computer code that can download to any system that can run those programs. The needed thing is the computer that can run the program code.
The new pinpoint accurate missiles like "Switchblade" are bringing new and frightening tools into the field of the military. Those miniature cruise missiles are developed for the special forces.
But when they turn more common. They will also deliver to the regular troops and non-military actors. The anti-personnel cruise missiles have been in use since 2011, and they can be used by the military but also by people like presidential security teams. The advancement of microchip technologies makes it possible that those small-size missiles or "Kamikaze-drones" can drive more complicated computer code than original systems.
That means those new systems can have the next-generation IIR (Imaging Infrared) system that recognizes the faces of the target. The remote operators can operate "Kamikaze-drones". But those systems can search and attack enemies independently. They can also drop from aircraft or even from satellites.
And the thing is that they are giving the fast-flying tactical aircraft the ability to kill individual people from the streets. Those small-size drones can also drop from other drones. So the Bayraktar or Predator drones can also drop those sub-drones to operational areas.
The small-size drones can also destroy things like aircraft. If the drone detonates the cone of the aircraft it turns unable to operate. Artificial intelligence can also collect the data from the different types of systems into one entirety. The biggest threat in those artificial intelligence-operated drones is that they are in the wrong hands. They are devastating systems.
If aircraft is equipped with AI. It can correct errors that the pilots are making.
But it can also make many other things. It can adjust the ECM and another jammer system. Artificial intelligence can also make it possible that radars and radio communication tools can change their frequencies when they are under jamming.
That system allows the connection of multiple weapon systems to one entirety. And it makes those systems frightening and deadly.
The problem with weapon systems is that their purpose is to be frightening and deadly. And artificial intelligence is the next step in complicated battle-field control systems. Any military force cannot stay outside that kind of development.
People are criticizing things like killer drones. But the thing is that those systems are effective.
The only needed thing is the effectiveness in the world of the military. The success of the drones in the Ukrainian and other wars is making them popular systems. Those unmanned systems might not be very sportsmanlike. But their purpose is to make enemies stay away from borders.
