Die Ukrainer haben geflügelte Quadcopter-FPVs entwickelt. Die Russen werden sie vermutlich binnen Wochen kopieren, wonach funkgesteuerte FPVs bis 100 km Reichweite haben können. Das ist so ein gutes Beispiel, warum überhastete Großbestellungen von FPV durch NATO-Staaten aktuell kompletter Unsinn sind. Weil der heutige technische Stand binnen Monaten überholt und binnen eines Jahres nicht mehr zu gebrauchen ist. Die einzige Chance, Schritt zu halten, besteht darin, die Produktion hochzufahren und die Ukraine zu beliefern. Dort gibt es unmittelbares Einsatzfeedback und laufende Entwicklungsimpulse aus der Praxis. Die so hochgefahrene Produktionskapazität kann später jederzeit für die eigenen Streitkräfte genutzt werden – bis dahin unterstützt sie die Ukraine. #UkrainianInnovation #FPVTechnology #DefenseStrategy
