The few videos posted here that I saw of human vs drones, usually shows a bunch of unaware people being hit a few seconds before spotting the drones. Or even not noticing them. I am not sure I saw any video that fits your description of "split seconds" between detection and being hit. The worst case I remember seeing had a reasonable number of seconds for people to disperse before the first soldier could be hit.How exactly do they locate it in your hypothetical? We've seen drones quiet enough and fast enough for there to be split seconds between dispersed infantry identifying the drone and then getting hit, and that's in the open. How do you do it in terrain, trees or buildings?
The identification issue can easily be nullified by keeping one or two persons permanently watching the skies for drones. To spot a drone should be doable at least, at a few hundred of meters away, given the contrast between their colors and a blue, white or even grey sky.
At hundred of meters, it would take a decent amount of time to arrive, enough to the soldiers to disperse at safety enough distance one another.
Even if the detection distance was not enough, it could be easily improved using drones that would precede the soldiers and probe the sky for the enemy drones many kilometers away.
This assuming open areas. On trees and buildings, it depends if one would have enough visibility to look for the drones efficiently. One possibility would be to keep the watchers on specific spots between the trees where there is better visibility. On buildings, to keep the watchers outside. Another possibility is to keep using drones permanently to watch the sky.
I read the article (more of an introduction) and might read the future English translation, depending on its size.Haha. This is most definitely not the case. These two incompetent sides have been doing this for the last few years, going through the entire evolution of this type of warfare. Frankly, no one else has done or gone through anything like this. I am sure both sides are hiring volunteers (or “well paid” contractors) though that could give them tips and show them how this is done on the competent level. Maybe ask the Americans and other westerners fighting in the Chosen Company and the Foreign Legion (is that the name?) in Ukraine.
This perception of Russians and Ukrainians (though by way less people in the case of the latter) being just meat and fighting WW1 type of stuff is very unhealthy. I would wager a good amount of money that if you put your described battalion of any other military in the middle of it, without proper introduction and training, regardless whose side they fight for, they would likely get picked off rather quickly by the opposing side. Some would probably have more success than others, I am fairly certain they would all get wiped out in the end, for the most part, if they persist.
An article on the subject of revolution. It is in French though, so you would have to use the translate function. The article itself is a brief, there is a pdf link within for the full report (also in French).
But that's precisely the contrary of what I am suggesting here. No one under a reasonable risk of being attacked should be submitted to it without proper training. People should train against their own drone teams before going into any offensive operation.without proper introduction and training
No secret here, just basic logical thinking, that's clearly not being used by most involved.Also, imagine someone knows a secret and not telling Ukraine (or Russia, for that matter) how to do better, but letting them get slaughtered instead.
Can you provide some detail of why you believe volunteers are fighting in Ukraine for money ,you would have to supply some evidence of what they were being paid in their normal jobs back home for that comparison ,a lance corporal in the A.D.F starts at a minimum $49,000 aus dollars to $88.000
