>Ukrainians love posting footage of themselves killing Russians with drones>Russians love posting footage of themselves killing Ukrainians with drones>Israelis love posting footage of themselves killing Hamas with drones>even Hamas managed to record a handful of successful drone attacks on Israeli soldiers during the 10/7 attacks>Iranians have killed at least 9-10 foot soldiers of The Great Satan in drone attacks and yet have not posted a single piece of footages documenting it despite the enormous propaganda value it would haveWhat gives?
>>64964376If i had to venture a guess it's because it didnt happen. They havent even tried to ai it yet either, which is weird.
>>64964376Those Shahed type suicide drones don't have camera's, they just crash into whatever coordinates you give em.
>>64964376FPV drones require a live video feed to the operator and are easily recorded, Shahed drones just fly to a pre-programmed GPS location and don't have a camera.Strikes on mobile targets like tanks and arty are often recorded by recon drones as those targets need to be stopped, strikes on static radar installations don't need recon as building don't move around much.I hope you aren't a /k/ommando because this lack of basic knowledge is pathetic after 4 years of high intensity drone warfare.
>>64964393>Those Shahed type suicide drones don't have camera's, they just crash into whatever coordinates you give em.So... they're basically smol JDAMs with a prop?
>>64964376>>64964387It's a bit long-range, even for fiber-optics. And that's implying Iran even started building FPVs in the first place.
>>64964404Closer to a tomahawk but yeah.
>>64964404More like the cheapest, lowest capability cruise missile you can imagine
>>64964404More like a "we have Tomahawk at home", but close enough. Also, welcome to /k/, get the fuck out.
Going to guess opsec
>>64964393>>64964403>>64964407I'm kinda surprised the Iranians haven't bothered mounting cameras to a handful of the hundreds of Shaheds they launch and then using whatever the best footage they manage to capture as "documentation" of them killing the Zionist oppressors or whatever
>>64964547>why not put high power video transmitters on something you don't want intercepted in an EW heavy environmentPlease just lurk for like 2 years.
>>64964550Just outsource it to some crafty jeets in Qatar or something
>>64964547They are hilariously restrained and concerned about optics for some reason, probably because there was a taboo around distributing graphic combat footage until very recently and all their propaganda is very humanitarian. They simply don't have that dog in them
>>64964547Getting the video back is the hard part. Most drone footage we see is from FPV or similar drones that require real time contact with an operator to function optimally, and are already sending video back anyway as part of that process.We see very little from longer range drones/cruise missiles/whatever the fuck you want to call them.
>>64964393>>64964403>>64964547>>64964589It’s because they’re not hitting anything besides oil drums destined for China. Iranian drones have struck like 2 military targets and neither were Israeli
>>64964589What anon is sorta pointing at here is that "drone" is an exceptionally broad term that overlaps with several other roles and capabilities. We have drone planes, in recon, ground attack and soon air-to-air versions, we have drone missiles, we have close range pseudo-mortar fire support drones, we have artillery-range tactical precision strike drones, we have surface and subsurface anti-ship drones, we have naval drones that carry aerial drones, and more besides. This is a new world and terminology is evolving almost as fast as the tech itself, but for right now the most important thing for you, OP, to make sure you learn is that "drone" really doesn't nail it down at all. You are asking why one kind of weapon doesn't do things that a completely different kind of weapon does.
>>64964376Is Iran still making drones or are they running low on stocks?
>>64964608So much of Iranian production is deeper under mountains than bunkers busters can reach that hitting production directly is near impossible.The weak link is the shipments of critical components like bearings and GNSS chips which I'm sure both Israel and the US are desperately trying to track.
>>64964404>You will never get to experience having your buddy bang on your helmet and yelling good job after you snipe the flying lawnmover bomb with your dual 20 mm cannon that your grandpa was shooting with back in the dayWhy even live
>>64964404Not even, they're like a retarded version of a V-1.
>>64964918Burger sneed has satcom and optic for terminal guidance
>>64964918because every time our enemy makes/does something we have to do it also, but 100x better and probably much more expensive.
>>64964918Apparently it started as a project to make a realistic training target, at which point someone realised that if you just put some explosives in it you've got an actual drone-missile-thing instead of a dummy.
>>64964949>spaming the same post in different threadsYou really are seething lmao
>>64964404No more like v1 buzzbombs
>>64964949>if i spam this projection of my own mentality in every single thread a thirdie's life will suddenly stop being worth less than 0.0001 that of a white person's lifekek, mad.
>>64964547Camera won't mean shit if it doesn't have network connectivity during flight to stream the video back to the operator. Which they won't. Because they don't have the infrastructure to do that. They aren't piloted, but pre-programmed to follow a specific path. Russians made some RC shahed, first with trying to use ukie 4G networks, then with integrating starlink terminals into them, but all of that was suboptimal.
>>64964918For the same reason they declined buying ukie drone interceptors before kicking off this war. Because the current administration is retarded and gay.
>>64965323Because ukieshit is just chinkshit in an eastern european bodykit.
>>64964376The Persians are a humble people who don't like to brag or seem ostentatious.
>>64965200>They realized if you put the explosives BACK IN it you've got....
>>64964918It has its use cases
>>64966291lol
>>64965327Nah, you're just retarded. There's a reason why ukie stuff was bought right now. Because it works. Because it was designed and developed by people whom have the experience and know what's needed and what works. The components by themselves have almost no value, compared to the finished product. Besides, quite a bit of those components are in fact domestic ukie crap.
>>64965327Would probably still be better than using 5 million dollar missiles to intercept 30k dollar drones
>>64964918To mogg the Iranians by using their own shit more effectively.
