In the ongoing Russian-Ukrainian conflict, a variety of new weapons and new tactics debut one after another, dazzling, in the many participating weapons in a variety of unmanned equipment performance is outstanding, a large number of consumer-grade drones to participate in the war triggered concern, recently, the extensive use of FPV has become one of the hotly debated topics.
FPV, also known as unmanned racing machine, is a kind of high speed, high mobility, with a ‘first-person perspective’ function of the UAV, FPV is not only fast, at the same time, the flight altitude is very low, can be in a small space high-speed threading; in addition to the FPV aerial action is flexible, but also can be in the air to make a complex manoeuvre such as rolling in order to avoid the opponent’s In addition, FPV is flexible in the air and can make complex manoeuvres such as rolling in the air to avoid the opponent’s interception, which means that it is much more difficult for the opponent to find and defend against FPV. More crucially, FPV cost-effective, the unit price of only a few hundred dollars, even if the flight was intercepted on the way or finally missed the target, the loss is also very small, but once the success of a substantial gain.
FPVs can be equipped with a variety of combat elements, the most common of which is to strap the combat element of an RPG directly underneath the FPV, thus using it as a cheap suicide drone/rover bomb. With its ‘first-person view’ and ability to reach targets at high speeds, it can be quite effective in striking enemy targets, such as attacking an opponent’s armoured vehicles, or using its agility to penetrate into an opponent’s fortifications to detonate.
FPV is so powerful, isn’t there any corresponding method? There are spears and shields, Kikundi cha SOBO has long developed counter-measures against FPV according to the characteristics of FPV. We will introduce them later.
