Drones?

[snow2]

Seems the east coast is experiencing waves of night time drones flying low over populated area's, trumps golf course and near military area's, lots of video's showing these drones with fight lights on which is odd if one of our adversaries was probing our defenses,couple close drone shots look like small fixed wing drones certainly not recreational drones others look quite large hovering, some are smaller and very mavuerable zipping around,curious times,possible military proto types?apparently no radar signal according to the pentagon but can we believe?

I know a guy who swears he is seeing drones at night all the time. I know some are planes but who knows?? I don't what these are that they are seeing out east, but someone should do something about them.

Swat a few out of the sky and see if the owner shows up to retrieve it. Wonder how a drone would take 3.5in BB

Drones run by ai is the future of military warfare, one day we will see on the news where military officials used drones and robotic attack dogs to take out insurgents in the near future. Crazy how sci-fi keeps predicting future events.
Google ai drones or robotic attack dogs lots of articles

Lunk,

Hate to break Elon's bubble here, but the U.S. military has been using drones for over 20 years.

I didn't say anything about Elon it was my own personal opinion, the fact of the matter is spending billions on military airplane technology is already old technology when a country can deploy thousands of drones run by ai to take out insurgents in areas that would take military personnel. I believe China has the technology now to do this. I believe this wouldn't be ideal with countries like the US that can use emp to take out these drones but it does have possible advantages in areas where this technology isn't available.

I am guessing that for the next 20-30 years there will still be a need for manned aircraft. Drones are certainly going to be a bigger part of our national defense going forward, but Elon wants to zap the F-35 program in order to go forward with nothing but drones. They aren't there yet with the drone tech and Israel just proved once again how useful modern stealth fighters can be.

Turns out Drones are protected, and you can be in serious trouble for shooting them down

Eagles are getting a lot more common and braver. I saw two this winter eating roadkill in the ditch close to our place. One flew a few feet and landed in a tree and I watched him in the mirror jump right back on as soon as I drove past. The other one didn't even look up when I drove by. Both right along side the road. First time I've ever saw that, could be that I saw the same one twice. 50 years ago it was really something just to see one every few years.

BOT,

All this chatter and video's of these drones last two weeks still no answers who or where there come from? Last night a few drones showed up in PA....
One would think if these things have bad intentions they would cruise night skies w/o lights.

BTW regarding attack birds of prey,shoot drone straight up works everytime,i also put reflective tape on drone topside both together seems to work.

No bird issues with full size bird 2.5lb drone only the mini drone we play with near nesting time of year,hawks get protective.

 

[Sum1]

Probably aliens.

 

[Jiffy]

Elon is an alien....and not from Mexico either.

Even if they are flying very low over my yard and house.

If it's within shotgun range it's within my personal air space. If it's yours you can pick the pieces out of my trash after it hits the landfill.
