>Russia Covering Aircraft With Tires Is About Confusing Image-Matching Missile Seekers U.S. Military Confirms>Schuyler Moore, U.S. Central Command’s (CENTCOM) first-ever Chief Technology Officer, mentioned the Russian use of tires to disrupt incoming attacks on air bases during a broader live-streamed roundtable talk on artificial intelligence (AI) and related technologies that the Center for Strategic & International Studies (CSIS) think tank hosted today. Before taking up her current role, Moore had been Chief Strategy Officer for U.S. Naval Forces Central Command’s (NAVCENT) Task Force 59, which is tasked with experimenting with integrating new AI-driven and uncrewed capabilities into day-to-day naval operations in the Middle East.>A “sort of classic unclassified example that exists is like a picture of a plane from the top, and you’re looking for a plane, and then if you put tires on top of the wings, all of a sudden, a lot of computer vision models have difficulty identifying that that’s a plane,” Moore said as part of a larger discussion about AI models and data sets.>Russia was first observed using tires to help shield Tu-95 and Tu-160 bombers at the Engels-2 Air Base from attack in the fall of 2023. This followed numerous Ukrainian long-range kamikaze drone attacks on the base, which is situated some 300 miles from the border with Ukraine. Images of other types of Russian aircraft covered with tires subsequently emerged.APOLOGIZE /k/: https://www.twz.com/air/russia-covering-its-aircraft-in-tires-is-about-befuddling-image-matching-seekers-u-s-military-confirms?s=09
>>62501545Ok and what sort of guidance did the drones use and was it AI guided on its attack run?
>>62501545its seems like its been working really well none of their planes have been destroyed on the runways once this technique was implemented.

>>62501545>>Russia Covering Aircraft With Tires Is About Confusing Image-Matching Missile Seekers U.S. Military ConfirmsIt is against radar, not optical guidance. It kind of works too, but at a great weight.
To clarify, it is against satellite synthetic aperture radar.
>>62502901most satellites are optical anyways so i don't get how effective the russians think it will be

>>62503191They're not getting paid to think.
>>62501565Hope they implement this as standart.
>>62501545hands with 8 fingers typed this post
>>62502511>everyone was confused by that.Any first world military would have laughed off the idea because of the potential damage having tires sit on combat aircraft could cause over time but if you don’t care about things like stress on the air frame or what it might do to the antiradar paint it’s a fantastic idea.
>>62501545they will need to find new miscellaneous objects to put on the plane once a month once the planes with tires images update the AI lmao. maybe they will use trash bags next
>>62502417>what's all thisNot Tu-95s
>>62501545Why tires though? Wouldn't camouflage netting do the same job?

>>62504825Slavs seems to think in rubber as magic material: better armor than steel, IR stealth>source: my ass, serbs and multiple examples of smegmalka
does Russia even have enough airfields, for this to matter. AI algorithms require a lot of data and manual hand-holding to be precise. how long would it take an intern at the Pentagon to just manually go through sat photos of all Russian airfields and count them. Russia simply doesn't have that manu strategic bombers.
>>62504946Does it matter? USA won't allow any strikes against them anyway.
>>62504946What's funny to me is that they think the NSA is not aware of the exact location and contents of every single one of their air fields, so much that AI is needed to somehow target them. And that this picture is years old, and just now this retarded fuckup is coming up with an excuse for it, as abhorrent and idiotic as it is.
>>62504286Every person only has 8 fingers though?>Digit ≠ finger
>>62501545>if you put tires on top of the wings, all of a sudden, a lot of computer vision models have difficulty identifying that that’s a planeIs he talking theoretically or is there a specific example the Russian did that he has in mind? Because the main goal for this sort of approach would be, as for general camouflage, to break down the silhouette of the object. And in the case of planes, wings are indeed the most defining feature to an AI model, so those are what you should primarily aim for. Which is something the Russian did not do at all. "Coloring" inside the lines does nothing to disrupt the overall shape. Hence why even a free, online object detection software had absolutely no problems with it.Also why would any of this even be relevant for such targets? They're static, fragile and you already have their GPS coordinates. Even if there'd be jamming present, switching to INS provides good enough accuracy for an airburst shrapnel warhead to get the job done.
>>62501545No I wont appologise, they put those tires on their planes as a quarter assed attempt to mask their IR signature, not to confuse the AI.This is the same shit like with the copecages, when ukies nicked them "grills" because when the tank burned the cage would collapse and trap the crew inside bbqing the crew. Only for RT after 2 years to come out saying the Russian crews dubbed the cage armor as "grills" due to their appearance.Or, yaknow, how the copecages akshually weren't made to protect against Javelins but fpv drones. This is revisionism.
>>62502012Heh

>>62508826No but the gloves are coming off
>>62501565Geging at all the retards replying to you. Good job anon.
>>62501545>you see Ivan, when you put tires on a plane Skynet will assume it's a truck not a plane.
>>62508115>Retard with access to Twitter knows more than US Navy Officer and Harvard graduateYeah, nah
>>62507040Anon, you're taking this too seriously. We all know it's meant to be armor. All the westerners looking for logical explanations to smekalka are as dumb as the russians practicing smekalka.The only explanation to smekalka is "were too dumb to figure out a proper cheap solution to a problem and too poor to bruteforce the solutions used by our enemies".Yes, the could use camo netting to hide the wings, at the very least, and paint the plane in a manner that could cause optical illusions. They could also simply build or dig hangars. Then cover them with nets. And paint the planes. And place decoys. And move them around so that the same planes aren't stationed in the same place for 5 decades. But nah tires it is and idiots assume it's meant to fool the skynet working for us.
