[@mikeharrington878]

Good video. Three issues stand out to me immediately about this build: 1. Those light aperture glass covers. Lovely polished things in demos, but what happens if someone bounces a round off of it, or it gets covered in dust? Either A. ya can't see through it anymore if it is a receiver cover, or B. the glass will absorb energy from a laser going through it, rendingering that inop either for nav or HE discharges; 2. The front of those tracks are too exposed. Some sniper fire or a RPG would stop that thing cold; 3. I didn't see a 360-degree laser receiver on the demonstrator. That means they are going to rely solely on battlefield RF networking? I doubt that! Imagine trying to rely on this thing tactically when one EMP could bollix the sucker until it rebooted. Nope. Although putting a comms mast on the thing to get it talking wouldn't be the hardest thing in the world. In my mind, the biggest challenge with implementing laser tech of any type (comms, nav, weaponry) is the difficulty in keeping the apertures clean. No matter if you decide to use glass/composite windows, physical shields, or a combination of both, you are going to get dirt (and potentially lead rounds lol) building up in the beam paths. In the best scenario it is going to inhibit the functionality of the unit, and worse (in the case of HE lasers) it is going to cause a catastrophic breakdown of the window material or transmitter from intense heat. That's just my two coppers as an old Navy aviation electronics tech from back in the day. Any of you young bucks work with these new battlefield laser systems? What's your take on the build-out of the demonstrators from BAE shown in the video? How do they hold up to existing units in use on our deployed armor? (Edit: I shouldn't have to remind anyone but- do NOT drop any classified info here! I'm only asking from a dirt-n-hardware perspective. If you don't have a declassified answer then don't answer! Jeez, kids today! 🙄) Peace, and remember to love your Mother~ ☮💝🌎

There was a great story about this and how to fix bombers in WW2 they looked at where the bullet holes were when they got back from battle then made better armor where it was shot but it ended up not helping, then they realized they should armor the parts where the ones that came back didn't get shot and it greatly reduced downed bombers as realizing if they made it back with the damage in those areas it didn't need anything more but the place is that weren't shot on the damaged planes that returned is where the critical areas are around

Controlled by their tireless electronic brains which were programmed to admit no possibility of defeat, the gigantic robot tanks known as Bolos were almost indestructible, and nearly unstoppable. Almost. Nearly. A sufficiently determined enemy armed with nearly limitless firepower and willing to sustain terrible losses could destroy a Bolo. But even a terminally damaged Bolo is still an opponent to reckon with. And as long as a Bolo's artificial intelligence retains a flicker of consciousness, its indomitable drive to defend the human race against all enemies will propel it forward. Bolos can be destroyed-but they never surrender!

It is? Stinger is used in the MANPADS short-range role. The M-SHORAD system has had its first units deployed for maneuver forces at the division level. NASAMS 3 was created for medium-range threats, which was just given the capability to utilize the AIM-120 (soon AIM-260), AIM-9X or IRIS-T munitions. And Patriot has received major upgrades for its long-range protection, but will be replaced with a hypersonic-capable system over the next decade. Then, the US Navy fields the Aegis Ashore anti-missile system and the Army fields the THAAD system for intercepting longer-range ballistic missiles. It's pretty well covered. And while we're at it, it seems our old iHAWK missiles which were being stored in mothballs are doing extremely well against Russian and Iranian stuff in Ukraine.

There's no reason this couldn't have a satellite downlink, or a downlink from a drone. Infantry sends command to drone using a controller pad, which sends command back down to "drone tank." Or they could be controlled from the rear remotely if there is a 360-degree VR sensor.

@@VisibilityFoggy unfortunately the satellite link will be susceptible to jamming just as easily as standard coms. Drone planes get away with it because they are flying at 20k ft.

[@MadeThisStuff]

I know this is just a prototype, but it's a pretty bizarre design. Lots of vulnerable sensors, lightly armed, lightly armored, an underpowered 300hp power train, and I presume pretty expensive. It's like they wanted to have this do a ton of things, but on paper it looks terrible a all of them. Even the shape of it is weird, you'd think that without a crew compartment to house and protect they'd be able to optimize in some respect, maybe have a bigger gun, missile launch capability, or better armor, a stronger engine, or lower profile with optimized armor angle design. Instead you have this tall, slow box looking thing. The high level concept is cool but this implementation just looks like a company trying to just on the 'drones are hot now' bandwagon.

[@larryowsowitz2274]

The optical sensors look vulnerable.

[@moteroargentino7944]

It all will come down to how expensive the final operative version will be and how fast can it be produced. Like drones and manned fighters.

Doesn't really matter if one gets destroyed as long as you can quickly build 10 more, but crew takes time to train, and you can't rush that.

I tested the Black Knight in 2007 at Ft Benning, and I can say that it's not underpowered at all. It's deceptively quiet and relatively small.
