That kinda setup is relatively inexpensive butt works great for what is needed.

With AI drones ppl will just have a wall of monitors and send commands like in strategy games tho.

My understanding of most drone pilots are in a ditch with some wood over them, about 1 mile away from the violence.

Ive also heard there is like, zero quarters for drone pilots on both sides, instant execution.

Which I would do after watching my friends butthole get exploded open while he begged to the bomb that was about to do it to let him live.

This is not a political post, it is a war tactics post. I hate that anytime I bring up fucking anything that has to do with anything It feels like im doing something bannable.

NICE FREE COUNTRY

Sounds like fiberwire drones to avoid jamming. I can't think of the right word for "fiberwire" right now.

It is so insane to me that these drones are flying around with fishing wire behind them.

I saw a video of someone cutting the wire after a drone passed.

Crazy stuff!

Hiding from these things after the rapture is going to be a hellscape.

Virtual reality is interactive 3d video, depicting a fake world that you are not actually in.

Not a security camera feed strapped to your face.

There are virtually zero "early adoptions" of VR in the market today.

And anyone making VR is making it for an extremely niche group.

But sure, oculus investors did very well.

Now its time for that exact same person to "disrupt" the weapons industry.

Big yikes ahead [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

they are worried about being counter hacked, apparently they've been war gaming taking over entire swarms for a bit now. so you're gonna need human humans for a little awhile i think

gonna be a lot of this type of shit for the UI i think, i remember playing with the Sphere window manager or w/e it was called almost 20 years ago instead of a ultra wide monitor or a wall of monitors

my ideal job in ww3 would be Overwatch for a squad, floating in a sensory deprivation tank multiboxing drones around them

>about 1 mile away from the violence.
Reaper/Predator pilots don't even have to leave the country man lol. we aren't a ex-soviet shithole, we have the technology

it won't even get to the drafted part i don't think, we'll surrender or blow up the world way before then

and i'm talking about the obvious tactical direction warfare is headed/has been at for a decade now

the other part is just fun posting, i'm a pacifist
