Says nothing towards potential enemies then using it against us or copying the tech like a country such as chyna/russia. Why not incorporate a self-destruction countdown after a very loud siren followed by five, four, three, two, one...BOOM!. Put a couple multi-language warnings on it saying if you steal this, it goes Boom, taking anyone/anything in 30foot radius with it to the bottom of the ocean. Be somewhat hilarious to see so pirates try and take, then their facial expressions change as they read it, then the siren and countdown....humorous no? Make Actions having Consequences Great Again.

      While this is mostly true (latest price for Sea Baby i've seen is 250K), these are nowhere near equal. Multi-role reconassaince sea drones with just optional added attack and permanent submarine capabilities, besides being autonomous and solar-poered are unprecedented. Completely different fish with different and wide roles, so for initial US price i'd say it's more than reasonable, if they do the claimed jobs. Note that planned wartime economies and centrally enforced MIC in autocracies like China, Iran, Russia, N. Korea etc. are bond to be an order of magnitude cheaper per unit (while still wasting billions on corrupted and failed propaganda projects though). Ukraine is an unique case, where free market and MIC is stretched to maximum and does not exactly follow the western profit rules, with mixed costs (materials and imported parts are not as cheap as their adversaries, while wages are now lower, which was other way round before the full-scale war). Ukrainian designed or adapted single-purpose weapons are better value in given circumstances, but you're comparing apples to orangutans here.

    Surprise, surprise, even WSJ falls for BS regarding a "Ninja Bomb", more than likely based not on rational and vetted facts but instead on rumors that originated with "video game warriors.". The actual weapon is a very small TBX warhead placed inside a mostly empty, AGM-114 ("hellfire") type air-frame. The missile was modified specifically to lower the cost of the original AGM-114 (which was meant to be used against tanks and heavily armored targets) while also significantly reducing "collateral damage", when used for "targeted individual personnel" (i.e. targeted assassination). due to the much lighter warhead, the missile's center of gravity as well as center of dynamic stability changed, requiring an aerodynamic stabilization solution, in the form of the six expandable knife-like wings protruding from the missile body frontal section. The "Ninja Myth" is nothing but stupid conjecture information proliferated on the Internet by substandard "drone journalists"...

      Technology has changed significantly since WW2. WW2 was about mass production, but not very high tech. This translated to a similar situation on the battlefield - large masses of soldiers, lots of deaths. Nowadays, especially in the West, the strategy has shifted towards fewer - much fewer - weapons systems, but highly specialized and extremely advanced technologically. This shapes the battlefields similarly - far fewer deaths.
      In WW2, you were sometimes sending out two dozen bombers to drop literally tens of tons of shells over a rather large area to destroy one single factory, and still not damage the target significantly. Nowadays, you send out a single missile, and in 99 cases out of 100 you completely obliterate the target. Overall, although individual weapons are orders of magnitude more expensive nowadays than they were in WW2, war overall is cheaper, especially in terms of human deaths.

    All these are great, but my concern more than ever is the U.S. military's considerable lag behind Russia within the E.W. domain. Himars rockets are reportedly being jammed on occasion in Ukraine, and other GPS guided weapons systems. Briefly I understand that the last phase of potential impact is GPS guided and that it may only lose precision striking within GPS jamming spectrum potential, but there are so many complicated U.S. systems wherein their inherent complexity makes their opertation more susceptible to E.W. based jamming. Russia has reportedly been able to project conical E.W. based fields to protect certain areas, as a more recent example. My point is that Russia has grown significantly in it's E.W. capacity and the U.S. is either in lag pursuit of their capabilities or in proper targeted pursuit, but there is still a significant gap margin. At the peer advancement rate of both U.S. electronic signal complexity and Russia's seemingly extreme focus on attacking various signals, I am concerned about Link-16, and other highly important communcation capabilities being compromised in the future. Imagine if the future Valkryie drones and other automated systems were to be compromised; that would be truly terrible. I genuinely hate to leave this comment because it's based on concern. Don't get me wrong, I love all of these hi-tech new inventions, and this comment isn't ideal because the context is naval in nature but the U.S. has been so incredibly reliant on G.P.S. systems for so long, and their adversaries have been highlighting various ways to diminish their capabilities for possibly just as long, as well.

    So in Ukraine the drone war is getting scary. The soldiers getting attacked by those drones don't always see them. Sometimes they go about their business and even looked right at the drone above there head and didn't even notice.
    Then when not having designated targets. They go out on hunts with drones 24x7. Day and night.
    Then the scary parts is seeing drones do circles soldiers trying to get away from and trying to hit with sticks.
    But the drone operator is toying with them because he could have already hit the button to kill him. Then goes in for the kill and target eliminated.
    Or other footage i seen where a guy hides from a drond behind a tree but doesn't see the drone behind him.
    Other things i seen on different media is how they also use land drones to go bomb them in foxholes or land drones to sometimes recover aircraft drones by hooking up and hauling them back.
    Ukraine is a lot more experienced with the smaller civilian sized drones for combat than we are. Then add Russia is always on the hunt for drones. You sometimes hear them but can't pinpoint exactly where they are and you hope they don't see you.
    Other things i seen is that sometimes when Ukraine launches drones into Russia then they get jammed. Keep going and then sometimes unjam after they are outside of jamming range and regain control.
    And if you see one drone there is usually several around.
    They fly in buildings with blown out windows or opened doors or blown out ealls and everything else to hit there targets such as men on foot.
    Oddly the drones have been fairly accurate and most of the time hitting their targets.
    I see at least one that managed to fly the drone in the tank hatch itself.
    I seen other footage where another drone swings around. Stops for a second then darts at a Russian tank and the turret blows off.
    Sometimes they are strapping old RPG style grenades to them for the tanks. Drone Still light enough to carry and blow up a Russian tank. They only need the explosive part of the rpg.
    When jammed they send more drones out while sitting in a bunker and keep trying. The video feed usually gets jammed first. They use one drone that not dji brand. That has the target tracking and stuff some consumer drones have. Usually they replace optics with better optics. Infrared or whatever.
    I been watching a lot of the journalist videos that came out recently.
    Like Darwin's war from scripps news. It's about Ukraine's ace fpv pilot. And several other journalist shows about drones on the front lines in Ukraine that all came out within the last month or 2.
    I forgot to add. When jammed they keep sending more out until successful. Then maybe the first few came up short but they only need one to make it to the target. So after a few drones or so they got the target despite the jamming.

      Russia just developed a “shotgun” adapter to hunt for drones, very effective. Is like shooting a duck.

      Because you see only succesfull strikes? Even if 90 out of 100 are jammed/missed/downed you'll see 10 videos and say "wow, all of them reached targets".

    When there is a new model order, I would hope allowance is made for in line first order improvements should such occur prior to completion of a first order. Seems to me, if significant, any feasible improvements should be added to the first model if caught in time; rather than simply waiting until the first order is finished as ordered. Seems wasteful to complete any order without known improvements being incorporated, just for the sake of preserving the completeness of the first, or any order. Rather, when a significant improvement can be added to the original order, simply negotiate the cost adjustment, add the improvement to the remain see of the first order, calling it a 10A. After that, pray tell, include those improvements and any subsequent others into a second model grouping for future orders.

    imagine a stealthed version of the triton, armed with enough explosive to silently attach to an enemy submarine and blow a huge hole in its side. This obviously would explosively decompress the sub and destroy it. Wow! A 3-5 million dollar weapon system like that able to take out an enemy sub that costs a thousand times more to build and operate!
