UAV / UCAV - Drohnen

[Broensen]

Man müsste halt aus politischen Gründen das Wort Drohne hier vermeiden und behaupten dass sei eine Art moderne Raketenartillerie oder sonstwie eine rethorische Verbrämung dafür finden.

Das tut man doch schon mit dem Begriff "Loitering Munition". Wenn ein Otto-Normal-Bürger weiß, was das ist, dann würde dieser auch eine sonstwie geartete Begriffsfindung durchschauen, erst recht die Presse.

Aber "Raketenartillerieaufklärung" wäre doch sogar die sich logischerweise ergebende Bezeichnung für eine Loitering-Munition-einsetzende Gattung der Bundeswehr.

So wie es aussieht zieht selbst ein Land wie Nigeria uns nun davon, absurd.

Wie konnte ich bisher hier die KARGU 2 Drohne nicht eintragen ?! Hab grad nachgeforscht und tatsächlich noch kein Eintrag zu diesem System, obwohl es so wesentlich ist und obwohl ich es seit Anfang 2020

schon auf dem Schirm habe - darüber hinaus ist es auch das System welches höchstwahrscheinlich als erstes mein ewig altes Konzept einer Luftmine real umgesetzt hat und vollautonom in dieser Weise tötete:

Israeli firm to arm wheeled armored vehicles with loitering strike munitions

Israel-headquartered UVision developed HERO Multi-Canister Launcher (MCL), adapted for launching all types of HERO Loitering Munition Systems from a single platform.

The new launch system will deploy loitering munitions, sometimes referred to as suicide drones, against various ground targets.

As noted by the company, UVision Air Ltd. is for the first time introducing a launch capability for different HERO systems, from a single launcher during this year’s AUSA Annual Meeting in Washington DC.

“Giving field forces operational flexibility, the innovative capability enables them to choose and launch the most suitable system, depending on the nature of the mission and target – from the Hero-30 for smaller ‘surgical’ attacks, through the Hero-120 for medium-sized and armored targets, up to the Hero-400 for long-range and fortified targets,” the company said in a news release.

Exakt dies (auf GTK Boxer) benötigen wir für unsere Brigade-Artillerie und noch an vielen anderen Stellen.

Über die Akinci, benannt nach den Rennern und Brennern welche Europa verheerten:

Haykırdı ak tolgalı beylerbeyi "İlerle!" - When the white clad bannerlord roared ''Forth cavalcade!'' (Akıncılar, by Yahya Kemal Beyatlı)

The Bayraktar Akıncı, which boasts a number of features not seen on any other type of UCAV produced anywhere before.

One of these features is the ability to launch high-precision cruise missiles at targets located 275+km away. This novel capability was made possible through the integration of the SOM series of cruise missiles developed by the Turkish TÜBİTAK Defense Industries Research and Development Institute. Due to size and weight limitations, only one cruise missile can be carried by the Akıncı under its single fuselage-mounted hardpoint. Still, this is a 100% increase over the operational cruise missile-carrying capabilities of any other drone type in the world.

The capability to carry SOM missiles is far from the Akıncı's only ace up its sleeve. Arguably the most innovative aspect of the Akıncı will be its prospective ability to use air-to-air missiles, consisting of the indigenous Bozdoğan IR-guided AAM, the Gökdoğan BVRAAM and the Sungur short-range AAM (itself a Turkish derivative of the FIM-92 Stinger MANPADS). The Akıncı's AESA radar enables it to autonomously pick out its targets at great range, and engage enemy slow-flying aircraft, helicopters and other drones at ranges as far as 100km away.

Its impressive air-to-air combat capabilities set aside, the Akıncı's expansive arsenal of air-to-ground weaponry will likely be its main (armament related) selling point. In this regard, the ability to carry several variants of the SOM family of cruise missiles designed to be used against enemy fortifications, ships or any other target that requires a precision hit with a 230kg heavy explosive warhead could end up being a real game changer. Their carriage doesn't only do much to expand on the capabilities of the UCAV fleet of its operator, but also frees up jet fighters for air combat tasks. This feat will be especially valuable for Turkey after its exclusion from the Join Strike Fighter programme.

Deutsche Drohnen als Dual-Use Technologie in Äthiopien:

https://www.oryxspioenkop.com/2021/10/ge...iopia.html

Ethiopia's last acquisition of (unmanned) aircraft before the commencement of the Tigray War in November 2020 are not the Wing Loong IIs UCAVs the country is so often reported to have deployed during the early stages of the conflict. Instead, the last (unmanned) aircraft it acquired were three German Trinity F9 eVTOL UAVs received as a gift by the German government in October 2020. [1] Although delivered to Ethiopia to help the Ministry of Agriculture in areas of natural resources protection and humanitarian responses, it cannot be ruled that these UAVs are currently being used in the Tigray War.

Israel und Südkorea gehen eine Partnerschaft für die Entwicklung und Produktion neuer Drohnen ein:

https://defence-blog.com/israel-south-ko...ly-drones/

Israeli government-owned aerospace giant Israel Aircraft Industries (IAI) and South Korean defense contractor Korea Aerospace Industries (KAI) inked a memorandum of understanding to cooperate in Loitering Munitions Program.

Loitering munitions combines the capabilities of a drone and a lethal missile by searching, identifying, attacking, and destroying targets, and performing battle damage assessment. The new weapon system is able to take out enemy high-value and relocatable targets.

According to an IAI news release, it signed a memorandum of understanding with KAI to secure a new concept weapons system that will maximize the effectiveness of Suppression and Destruction of Enermy Air Defenses (SEAD & DEAD) missions.

... um diese dann an die Türkei und die Azeris zu verhökern damit diese die Technologie klauen können etc pp

Die Türken versuchen im Prinzip den Vorteil der Assymetrie auszunutzen: wir haben Drohnen, die anderen haben keine oder unzureichend oder schlechtere Drohnen, also stehen unsere Drohnen gegen andere Systeme der anderen. Assymetrie ist im Kampf meist von Vorteil. Symetrie hingegen erschwert den Sieg, weshalb es oft keinen Sinn macht diese zu verfolgen. Ein symetrischer Ansatz wäre hier selbst Drohnen zu beschaffen, Drohnen gegen Drohnen einzusetzen usw

Wie aber könnte man die türkische Drohnenmacht assymetrisch kontern ?! Das ist eine Frage mit mehreren möglichen Antworten, und die Frage wird sein welche davon sich als richtig erweist.

Allgemein:

Über Drohnen im modernen Krieg und ihre Auswirkungen auf die internationale Politik und Ordnung:

https://mwi.usma.edu/mwi-podcast-global-...the-drone/

Why do states—and nonstate actors—choose to use armed drones as weapons of war? How does that decision affect these actors’ international reputations? How do questions of law and morality intersect when it comes to drones? And, perhaps most fundamentally, beyond impacting the character of warfare, to what extent will armed, networked, and unmanned platforms change geopolitical dynamics and balances of power? In short, how will they affect global order?

US troops targeted with ‘deliberate and coordinated’ drone attack in Syria

A drone attack in Syria has been carried out against US troops- but American forces miraculously survived the encounter without a scratch.

The strike took place near the al-Tanf Garrison, where US troops are currently stationed as part of a security initiative.

US Central Command Capt. Bill Urban said the area “was subjected to a deliberate and coordinated attack.”

“Based on initial reports, the attack utilized both unmanned aerial systems and indirect fire,” Urban said. “All US personnel have been accounted for, and we are not aware of any injuries to US personnel at this time.”

Die Ukraine hat nun zum ersten Mal ihre türkischen TB-2 Drohnen eingesetzt:

https://defence-blog.com/ukraine-conduct...time-ever/

Ukrainian Armed Forces have employed the Bayraktar TB2 armed drone for the first time in combat, Mil.in.ua reported Tuesday.

Citing a report from volunteer Roman Donik, Mil.in.ua reported that Turkish-made Bayraktar TB2 armed drones were used for the first time to destroy the enemy artillery that fired on the village of Granitne, after which the Russian-backed separatists announced the alleged liberation of the Armed Forces of the village of Staromaryivka.

Bayraktar TB2 managed to find, track and destroy 122mm D-30 howitzer south of the occupied Boykivske (formerly called Telmanovo). Howitzer had been responsible for the attacks against the village of Granitne.
