The future now… watch the film in the link.
The Israeli company Elbit Systems demonstrated its new development of a loitering munition, which is designed for manpower destruction, in particular, in built-up conditions.
This drone was named Lanius and is characterized by the developer as a highly maneuverable universal tool for destroying the enemy in the street combat conditions.
At the same time, Lanius is attracting increased interest due to the extremely interesting concept of a hunter drone whose purpose is not the enemy's equipment, but his manpower. To do this, first of all, an actual sports quadrocopter was used. And to destroy the enemy, a high-explosive fragmentation warhead of directed action is used.
But, the main feature of Lanius is a developed system of artificial intelligence. The drone analyzes the space, detects obstacles and targets, thanks to which it can be used even indoors. Thus, its use does not depend on the skill of the "pilot", and its participation in the destruction of the target is already purely formal, the drone can independently identify the enemy, approach it, take the necessary position, and the operator is only required to pull the "trigger".
