Drones have been used in military operations for like...20 years now. All these MIC contractors are doing is using off the shelf parts that have been available for a few years now.

I suspect a laser with an object tracking camera could easily fry the image sensor on the drone. Or a basic radio jammer could interrupt its communication. Or a faster counter drone could drop a net on it. Bolt certainly has it's uses, but there are many inexpensive and low tech defenses against such drones. Maybe next gen military bases will be built inside Topgolf nets 🤣
to see military industrial complex marketing the first dji drone airburst is absolutely insane. This one feels different, and really highlights the reality of things out there now and how terrifying it is.
China cannot compete against the US in any scenario when comes to military technology, the US doesn't lead the commercial drones because they aren't interested in this market, if they were really interested they would be leading the market by a large margin.
this is very impressive, more expensive than a fpv drone but maybe less expensive than a whole fpv pilot, squad and bunker needed for these operations.
I hear you. While this looks more capable than what were seeing in Ukraine, it's also more expensive. Probably nowhere near as expensive as a missile, but still. And it might just be me, but the way Anduril is marketing this drone feels like an anti insurgency weapon for the early 2000s to 2010s rather than a potential high attrition war with a near pear.
Even though it may be more expensive than a regular FPV drone, I think buying these in bulk will unlock new capabilities that regular FPV drones can't necessarily do considering these are autonomous. For instance, you could send like 20 of these at a whole convoy to disable every vehicle with insane precision compared to having to have 20 FPV pilots at once to execute this task. Truly new man-made horrors beyond our comprehension.

For perhaps $20K, you can have professional-level motor winding machine, a CNC, a laser cutter and 3D printer. We need to develop distributed production of basic drones in America, so that an industry of more sophisticated drones for industrial and military application can ride on its back and scale up in an emergency. Seems like Anduril is on that, but only for the high end. It needs to be a base for the whole industry. I remember in the early days of VR/AR Palmer open-sourced a light detector for display sync that we used. We should "open source" the basis of an automated machine shop so that basic machining can be done anywhere and scale up.
Okay, I know this company is in kahoots with the military industrial complex but that slow motion detonation of that drone on that truck was fucking sick
"is in kahoots with the MIC" you know they sell weapons, right? what did you expect? their catalog in mainly weaponry and AI systems for the battlefield was this a surprise for someone? a weapons company working with the military?
@@rickjames18 exactly what the words describe; America's military industrial capabilities. As in, the companies that make shit; Raytheon, lockmart, etc

Good, solving over-reliance with DJI should be a priority. Handheld drones have been the future of warfare and, uncomfortably, a Chinese company currently is the largest provider of such game-changers.
when a 7>incher like the quad in the video is flying like 50-100 meters above in the video its basically not audible. then again this isnt really meant for stealthy tracking they have other products for that.. this is the kill vehicle
is there a laser designator version? or maybe a narrow beam forming coms relay/control node version to fly outside of jamming range and guide/control other drones that have to go into GPS jamming range?-- just spitballin indeas.

A flying Claymore -Nice 👌
The savior of western civilization.
Until China builds millions of them...
Curious on the choice to fly props in vs out when you want to protect camera integrity?
you can see "munition variant" up in the top left hand corner at 00:13. talk about a chekovs gun! are these being purchased by the military or is this a proposal to be evalulated?
I guess you got your answer at the end
@@ecoman003yeah most definitely these are already I g killing people
Yeah that's dope and the UI was very well done. UI is missed so often Anduril nailed that one.
Anduril cooks up another ultra-modern advanced warfare weapon for the 21st century
Imagine running from the city with your family, finally get far enough away to set up some shelter. Spend the last few hours making sure everything is clear and safe. Sit down to try and get everyone food and maybe a fire going then boom claymore from da sky
We need to win the drone wars
Who do you mean when you say we?
Americans?
You think the american military gives a shit about americans?
The national guard just abandoned america in a time of serious crisis, when a quarter of the country is left in shambles, they went on to start wars on behalf of a different country, whose ethnicity rules over you and has nothing but contempt for you.
Honestly, by now, its hard to blame them.
@@gehstur7150 You have zero concept of the real world and probably get all your news from Russian trolls on twitter well either that or you're a Russian troll. Also you appear to be a rascist anti-semite so you're opinion is worth less than the toilet paper the national guard is delivering. FEMA is giving people upwards of 50k or better for the damages so don't say shit about we're not doing anything but, then you're one of those people who would complain about that too.
Damn. You could assassinate anyone in the world and they’d never be able to stop you.
There are anti-drone measures, but they are unwieldy and more costly than the drone. Otherwise if you're a master with a shotgun and actively vigilant during all your exposed outings, maybe you'll get lucky.
@@MadPutz unless you have a portable directed EMP, all other countermeasures are useless if the drone is in autonomous mode
@@MadPutz
You will hear one before you see one. You hear, you move, maybe bird shot instead on 00. That luck thing made me think of the Mossad motto...
@@christianfelix1580 but the drone can be shielded against EMP of a certain strenght...
@@heretikpapy expensive, but also true, dark times ahead :/
Wooooooo the attack was awesome 💯❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Didnt you guys have some forest fire fighting tank you developed? I'd like to see video of that.
They did not need to go this hard. Cinematic af
Okay the tech is absolutely stunning but this song is amazing too...
MODERN STUKA
you got the sound, the speed, and the fear your put into the enemy that attacks come from any angle in the sky
2:01 why does it explode so early and not when its closer or inside the truck ?
Directional warhead. Exploding before hitting the target maximizes the area of effect.
will they stock these at harbour freight ? asking for a friend
It knows where it is because it knows where it isn't.
Soo the explotion source it from battery? And we just need dome jammer signal

:26 , how do those exposed windings deal with horrible sandy conditions?
For perhaps $20K, you can have professional-level motor winding machine, a CNC, a laser cutter and 3D printer. We need to develop distributed production of basic drones in America, so that an industry of more sophisticated drones for industrial and military application can ride on its back and scale up in an emergency. Seems like Anduril is on that, but only for the high end. It needs to be a base for the whole industry. I remember in the early days of VR/AR Palmer open-sourced a light detector for display sync that we used. We should "open source" the basis of an automated machine shop so that basic machining can be done anywhere and scale up.
I LOVE your branding and design language. You have the most beautiful company i’ve ever seen before.
at first i thought its a commercial drone that has that Dive feature to make cool shots like an FPV drone until 1:59
It's kinda shocking the amount of excited comments there are for a machine that kills people.
Okay, I know this company is in kahoots with the military industrial complex but that slow motion detonation of that drone on that truck was fucking sick
The USA needs the Military Industrial Complex now more than ever.
As President Reagan said, we should always strive for "Peace through strength".
"is in kahoots with the MIC"
you know they sell weapons, right? what did you expect? their catalog in mainly weaponry and AI systems for the battlefield
was this a surprise for someone? a weapons company working with the military?
What “military industrial complex”?
@@bzipoli why are you getting this mad over a joke.
@@rickjames18 exactly what the words describe; America's military industrial capabilities.
As in, the companies that make shit; Raytheon, lockmart, etc
Outstanding! We'll take a million of these please!
Name of the background music used in the video?
I would be interested in this for personal transport and delivery. The war weapons thing is so low...
nice bud will there also be one whit a shaped charge to knock out ifv or maby even tanks
It says there are three different payloads. Anti personnel, anti material, and anti armor. So I’d expect something, maybe not enough against a tank though.
That last shot was striaght outta the movies
Good, solving over-reliance with DJI should be a priority. Handheld drones have been the future of warfare and, uncomfortably, a Chinese company currently is the largest provider of such game-changers.
please come out with hobbyist and commercial (non military) drones too. Thank you for all you do
pls for the love of god do an IPO already so I can give you my life savings
and i was thinking i was going to use it at a friend's wedding celebration to fire up the occasion!!
loud propeller sound might be an issue
Couldn't help but think about that the entire video. Audible stealth is a mission requirement.
when a 7>incher like the quad in the video is flying like 50-100 meters above in the video its basically not audible. then again this isnt really meant for stealthy tracking they have other products for that.. this is the kill vehicle
if u lose a signal he will back to area where he can get good signal again ?
is there a laser designator version?
or maybe a narrow beam forming coms relay/control node version to fly outside of jamming range and guide/control other drones that have to go into GPS jamming range?-- just spitballin indeas.
Could it be adapted to drop a glide bomb so that it can be reloaded and reused?
It needs to come in fast. Would be cool though if it could be like a dive bomber, i.e. drop the payload and then pull out of the dive
Maybe Ghost-X can do that?
This is literally a Rainbow Six Seige character in real life, which is cool.
And as cool as that is, I would not want that thing aimed at me. Terrifying stuff.
It's not cool, you already understand it since you don't want any of it near you
@@TheManinBlack9054 You know who's really gonna think it's not cool? Russia and China lol
nice does it have geo fencing? i like to use this to smuggle things across borders or carry other payloads
can you make a consumer drone? Like ones that don't blow up? we want a dji competitor for so long now
X2
low camera quality will be a problem. most military drones are not equipped with small, high definition cameras like DJI's
@@gurmiro if it has a DJI-similar pattern gimbal, installing an aftermarket camera won't be a problem (+ i don't really want 4k camera tbh, I'd much rather have an actual military-esque FLIR drone)
Bro... Why will they sell a 500 usd drone for us when they can sell the exact same drone to the govt for 15k usd by just adding a grenade on it.
@@danarrib LOL you misspelled 150k.
few question
how long it can operate ?
how much explosion does it have ?
whats the camera ?
whats the range ?
does it have any AI capabilities ?
what about automatic battery changing ?
...
This is basically just a standard DJI drone with a bomb strapped to it. It's good to know that such a weapon could be built by anyone with basic chemistry and programming skills! 🔥
Other than missing the autonomous features so it can't be taken out by EW as easily and airburst.
Not exactly true, these things have to be much more resiliant to electronic warfare than a commerical version (which is the hard bit).

DJI drones don't have 20km range 😂😂😂
@@farzana6676 They do. They go even further than 20km. The obstacles and contested frequency bands are the problem, something that Anduril won't tell you on a commercial lol.
Brilliant work. When Bolt follow an object on the ground, how is the noise from the propeller been heard on the ground in dBZ?
we need a Lucky Hawaiian T shirt line.
- Hovering in place
- Automatic Landing
- Intelligent RTH
and the new function added to our new Mavic for when you lose the signal :
- STRIKE
"Watch a vaporware product we will get a government contract for to develop then disappear like Metalstorm."
metalstorm was a one product wonder, anduril is diversifying their stuff like with barracuda
doesnt it weaken the attack when it explodes so early when it is still high above the car?
look at the video again and watch the ground & look at the windscreen. No one in that vehicle would survive.
Nope the opposite it gives a much larger area of effect, you're thinking penetrating explosions this is a frag.
Thank Christ you guys are on our side.
On the side of whoever pays enough
Can I purchase it minus the explosive capabilities? For civilian/commercial use?
You should have a dedicated department solely for battery research and manufacturing high energy density batteries for higher range and control instead of relying on Third party battery manufacturers like CATL etc.
Anduril is not large enough to do that. Tesla should be leading on that front. Tesla has the resources and they also have the motive to achieve high energy density.
That was unexpected, great presentation
Babe wake up, dude who keeps copying my "Babe, wake up" comments on Anduril videos just posted:
tfw you're babe waking up beside him 🤏
Guys looks like an amazing work, any thoughts regarding an IPO?
huh my DJI can do this
Ukrainians did a pretty good job using the landing light as a grenade dropper too. So theirs is reusable.
Lol djis are even better
I was being sarcastic you guys
Please make some for consumer and commercial use. I would love to upgrade from my old drone.
Lucky is supposed to come out with a new vr headset so im waiting on that
Is it just me, or does glorifying warfare like this feel unsettling
The up-beat music, the Xbox UI, the aesthetic presentation. This feels like a dystopian parody -but it's real.
It's similar to watching marketing conferences discuss targeted advertisements in glowing terms
*really thoughts would have been my new gadget for christmas*
So it does what a 500-dollar drone, a grenade, and a decent pilot can for 50 times the price.
