The new artificial intelligence-driven drone technology is an effective threat for enemies. And that technology is under development in China, Russia, and the USA.

Since the USAF uncovered their sixth generation jet-fighter concept there has been thought, what that air force keeps out from the eyes? What are the secrets of the nuclear strike capacity of that air force? And what kind of systems is planned to use in the other military branches? Things like robot submarines are easier to hide than some airborne drones. And there are millions of people who have ever seen a nuclear submarine in real life. 

The small-size stealth drones are giving new capacities for things like nuclear submarines. They can use as missiles. But those drones like "Cormorant" can use as air combat vehicles. And in the aircraft carriers and nuclear submarines can involve quantum computers. So the nuclear submarines that can operate small-size stealth drones can also have the quantum computer that controls those drone swarms. And that thing makes them the most powerful system in the world. 

Lockheed Martin has developed new large-size combat drones in silence or out of the public eye. And that tells that the battle between the nations continues in the field of the ownership of the most effective mixture of drones and manned aircraft. China and other nations are also making investments in drones and other unmanned systems that can operate airborne, ground, surface, or underwater sectors. 

This thing causes that the new drones and manned aircraft are coming to arms-race also outside the USA. The thing that makes drones very interesting tools is that the losses of the robot aircraft are easy to hide. The requirement for independently operating drones is because the ECM systems can cut the communication between the drones and satellites. The independently operating drones are large-size. The reason for that is that those drones require very much computer power. 

Artificial intelligence requires powerful computer systems. The other version is to use a drone swarm. In drone swarms, every single drone is sharing its computing power. But the problem is that the drone swarm can cripple by using an ECM system. 

Shooting down drones is not more difficult than shooting down manned aircraft. But the problem is how to find those drones. And the thing is that the drones are very cheap and regular missiles are expensive. If there are hundreds or even thousands of small-size drones that are attacking the targets. There are not enough missiles to defend targets against those drones. 

The loss of manned aircraft causes that the pilot is missing or dead. And the robot aircraft are an interesting tool for recon missions. The rumor or my thought about the legendary but mysterious "Aurora" is that this aircraft might be a drone. That causes that nobody ever reported acting as a pilot for that aircraft. 

The drones can attack the ground targets like manned aircraft. But the big-size drone can act also as the platform for the smaller drones that can carry rifle- or pistol-caliber weapons. That thing makes those drones a new kind of threat. The drones can act a similar way the regular aircraft, but they can operate extremely long time. 

Small-size drones have better survivability and they will reach their targets more probable than large-size strategic bombers. The reason why the long-range attack operations are planned to transfer to drones. Is that the small-size aircraft can operate the long-term missions. But those aircraft are not allowing the pilot to do anything else than just sit. And long-range missions are important for hiding the secrets of the newest stealth and high-speed aircraft. 

The extremely long-enduring flight time with airborne refueling makes it possible that the drones can patrol even weeks and they can attack from every direction. And the thing that makes drones problematic is that many nations how effective those systems can be. 

And the idea of the kamikaze drones is taken from the Japanese kamikaze pilots from WWII. The first idea was to create cruise missiles that can return to base if they are not needed. The next version was the remote-control attack aircraft. 

The last ones are independently operating artificial intelligence-driven drones that are capable of air combat and ground attack missions. The nuclear attack drones can have internal nuclear warheads. They can use regular bombs in the "conventional bombing missions". But act as kamikaze in the nuclear strikes.
