Anti-drone weapons

Anti-drone weapons

The new threats would make a need to create new counter-weapons. Drone-swarms are the threat to the military forces around the world. And when we are thinking about counter-actions against those weapons the most effective thing against them, if we would use the conventional systems are the fast-shooting automatic shotguns like a shotgun version of the normal machine guns and cannons, what are shooting birdshot. The idea is that the drone-swarms would shoot a large number of steel balls, what mission is to shoot down as many drones as possible.

Those weapons can be as an example 155 mm. field howitzer, what is loaded with shrapnel ammunition, which makes that weapon very effective in the purpose, where is needed to destroy very many drones at the same time. But also microwave and plasma-based solutions would be effective in the case, where drone-swarms are attacking against some area.

If this kind of weapon is dropped from the aircraft above the swarm there is a possibility that the EMP-bomb would destroy all electronics of that drone swarm. But the EMP weapon, what bases the technology, where the battery is pressed with explosives. Also, the weapons, which are based with MASER (Microwave Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation) would be used against drone swarms as well as many other targets.

The radars, what are operating by using high voltage microwave frequencies can also terminate incoming aircraft and as well as drone swarms. The difference between radio-and microwaves is that the microwaves are warming targets, and that's why they are used in a microwave oven.

If we would target microwaves to the head of the person, that would cause the same effect, what happens, when the cruel egg is put in the microwave oven. Microwave-frequential electromagnetic radiation would also heat the metals, and if the materials of the aircraft are melting, that would cause the situation, that the body of the aircraft would be destroyed.

That system would create extremely high power microwave burst can also be used against aircraft and satellites. The microwave would be very dangerous for humans and animals, but the reason, why those weapons are created is that the microwave area is sharper than with the use of napalm or some conventional explosive.

There are rumors that the HPV:s (High-Power Microwave Bombs) are meant to use also against the attacking aircraft. That means that those microwave burst weapons would be dropped from the satellites to the route of attacking aircraft and those weapons might sweep those aircraft from the skies. 

EMP-weapons might also damage electronics of the large warships, missile-sites and other places, where the electronics are in a vital role. But if we are thinking about non-lethal and existing things, the most effective weapons can be the ECM-systems, which are used normally to jam the radars.

Those systems can also use to deny the communication between drones and that means that drones lose the data-connections, also ECM-systems can jam normal encrypted communication, what uses the data transmitter. Also, those ECM systems can deny the use of IFF (Identification, Friend or Foe) systems, if they base the radio-communication.

Other versions of the IFF systems use optical data transmitters, what are immune against radio-wave based systems, but they are vulnerable to clouds and smoke, what denies those systems communicate with other systems. And the optical IFF-system is easy to hack. The aircraft or land station must just record those flashes, and copy them to own similar systems.

Plasmonic waves can make new waves in quantum technology.

"LSU researchers have made a significant discovery related to the fundamental properties and behavior of plasmonic waves, which can lead ot the development of more sensitive and robust quantum technologies. Credit: LSU" (ScitechDaily, Plasmonics Breakthrough Unleashes New Era of Quantum Technologies) Plasmonic waves in the quantum gas are the next-generation tools. The plasmonic wave is quite similar to radio waves. Or, rather say it, a combination of acoustic waves and electromagnetic waves. Quantum gas is an atom group. In those atom groups, temperature and pressure are extremely low.  The distance of atoms is long. And when an electromagnetic system can pump energy to those atoms. But the thing in quantum gas is that the atoms also make physical movements like soundwaves. It's possible. To create quantum gas using monoatomic ions like ionized noble gas. In those systems, positive (or negative) atoms push each other away.  When the box is filled with quantum gas and som...

What is the difference between TR-3A and TR-3B? And are those planes real?

What is the difference between TR-3A and TR-3B? And are those planes real? Is TR-3B (0) "Black Triangle UFO" or is it only the piece of paper?  The study project, what is used to create advanced ideas for use of the nuclear-powered aircraft. Or is it the study project or black budget aircraft, where lost 2,3 trillion dollars (1)of the stealth bomber were gone. In this text is things, that might seem very difficult to accept, and when we are thinking about things like doubling the object or making it smaller by using huge layers of energy, nothing denies to test those things. But were those tests successful, there is no data about that in public Internet, so we must say that things like doubling the human or aircraft can be tested, but the results can be unknown.  But in the source two is the tale, what seems like impossible, those men, who got Noble Prize put at first time one atom to the box, and hit it with photon one photon in the box and hit it with t...

The interesting coincidence between USS Sea Shadow (1982) and CSS Virginia (1862)

Image I The interesting coincidence between  USS Sea Shadow (1982) and CSS Virginia (1862) Far away from its time is the thing, that you might notice when you see those two images. The upper one (Image I) is portraying the modern naval USS Sea Shadow (IX-529)(1) experimental Stealth ship, which was created by Lockheed-Martin, and the image below (Image II) is portraying the CSS Virginia (2), the ironclad from the Civil War Era. The thing why the hull of the CSS Virginia, what is ironclad from 1862 is that the ammunition of the cannons would not transfer their impact energy to the hull of the ship. And the reason why Sea Shadows hull has this form is that it should point the radar echo away from the hull.  The thing that I must say that CSS Virginia is far ahead its time because that structure is effective against the explosive ammunition, and the slanting armor of tanks like T-34 and Sherman have made them effective. But for some reason, the use of slanting ...
