Ships, submarines, and airplanes would have to rely on other technologies for navigation, primarily inertial navigation systems. However, traditional inertial navigation systems, like gyroscopes and accelerometers, become inaccurate … Read more

These drones seem to be a new and cost-effective way to counter enemy recon compared to traditional air defense systems. It’s unclear if they’re modified existing models or entirely new designs.
