>New Test Footage: AH-64 Apache attack helicopter executes rocket-powered launch of Altius-700. https://x.com/anduriltech/status/2041281298413863380
>>65053324Imagine launching entire drone swarms out of rocket pods
>>65053324what is a one way attack drone but a guided missile
>>65053324It will be interesting to see how long it takes them to make the drone attack version of the MV-75 a reality. That would present a very interesting new capability for the Army
>>65053324That has almost no advantages of a drone
>>65053342What is a drone and what are its advantages? Is Shahed-136 a drone?
>>65053324So it's a way to have a guided missile that only costs $50k instead of $150k?
>>65053324I'm telling you right now, my inner 80s kid is in rapture, this is some transformers bullshit. Tax me for this daddy!
>>65053348Loitering, maneuver, course interpretation, I mean I'm sure there is a formal list.>>65053342drone advantages plus range>>65053341it is real it's just not operating at an acceptable level to brag about - unfortunately our shit now has to be mindblowing or it gets defunded.
>>65053355No, they're still upwards of $150k (Taiwan recently bought nearly 300 of the smaller Altius 600M for $300 million), they just have a 160 km range instead of a 10 km range like a Hellfire. There's also an ISR version, so you could fire off one of those and three of these to scout an area and destroy targets of opportunity.
The US military being brought kicking and screaming into the 21st century, can't keep buying the same missiles from the 80's, at the same prices...
>>65053374The US military invented drone warfare.
>>65053374US has litterally had drones since the 80's you dumb nigger
The aircraft carrier theories are all moving to small scale with drones in a land version (tank style) and an air version (drone mothers). And they'll all get a version of a carrier group escort.Brain is a flat circle.
>>65053380Vietnam was a drone war nigger
>>65053385add on: I wonder if little robots will D-day a trench full of mobiks from drone higgins boat tanks
>>65053324WHAT DID I SAY ABOUT ATTACK HELICOPTERS? TO THE FAGGOT ALWAYS SAYING THEY WERE OBSOLETE BECAUSE OF DRONES, LOOK NIGGER, LOOK WITH YOUR BROWN EYES
>>65053324>American attack helicopters now equipped with drone launchers instead of rocket launchersNot instead of, in addition to.>>65053380Try the 1950s
>>65053392I saw you, myself, inform that faggot of this very fact. You tole him it were a brownoid cope and it were.
>>65053396I swear to christ this will be the next D-day but it'll probably be stupider with ads and shit.
>>65053398future warfare will involve 5km tall floating billboards at the edge of nations territorial waters
>>6505338080s? Since Vietnam nigga
>>6505339640s actually
>>65053360I know it’s something they’re working on I meant it more as I wonder when it gets into the hands of the troops. Great way to backdoor more or less fixed wing attack capability
>>65053338Soon.
>>650533801930's was the first time we bombed a ship with a drone.
>>65053505A drone killed one of the Kennedys during WW2.
>>65053324>AndurilSo it gets fried by ECM and costs more than a Hellfire?
>>65053324so basically a manually guided missile?
>>65053342don't know>In its baseline medium-range configuration, the Altius-700 offers an operational range of up to 460 kilometers and an endurance of approximately four hours, enabling extended loitering and persistent surveillance over large operational areas.https://aviationa2z.com/index.php/2026/03/28/us-army-launches-altius-700-drone-from-apache/
>>65053374retard
>>65056555Looks like Belkan witchcraft to me, desu.
>>65053338>does he know
>>65053482>liberal purging deathbots
