According to media reports, the Indian Army is beginning to deploy a variety of imported and domestically produced intelligent weapons, such as robots, unmanned tanks, robotic dogs, drones and other equipment. The Ducos-type bomb disposal robots are equipped with $180,000 each, weighing 380 kilograms and using a six-wheel design, which can climb stairs. The telescopic arm of this bomb disposal robot can lift a weight of up to 100 kg.
The Indian Army has begun to procure hundreds of robots, mainly deployed in the mountainous areas of the border, for the purpose of transporting ammunition for forward positions, and it is said that the robots procured by the Indian Army can also transport grenade bullets and shells to any desired location through stairs or passages.
Even the Indian Army has ordered 500 combat robots, which are already deployed in border areas such as Kashmir. The Indian Army can operate these combat robots, shoot, operate, and engage in gun battles in dangerous environments.
The robots are capable of wading at depths of 0.2 meters and performing intelligence-gathering tasks, while also giving them the ability to strike, equipping them with weapons and throwing ammunition at predetermined targets. Perform patrol, reconnaissance, surveillance and combat missions on the plateau front.
India's newly equipped drones can transport weapons and ammunition to high-altitude positions and perform intelligence monitoring missions. Vijay Kumar Saraswat, director of India's Defence Research and Development Organisation, said India is also developing robotic soldiers, which function similarly to humans and require a database and artificial intelligence (programs) to perform tasks.
At the same time, India has also ordered 30 American MQ-9 Death drones, with a unit price of 100 million US dollars, a payload of more than 1 ton, and can carry 4 Hellfire missiles and 2 227 kg laser-guided bombs. Leave it blank for up to 24 hours. Suitable for attack time window sensitive targets.
The Indian army has also ordered four Israeli-made Heron reconnaissance drones, which can carry up to 250 kilograms, fly at an altitude of 10,000 meters, have a top speed of 200 kilometers per hour, and can sail for 52 hours.
Speaking of which, these equipment of the Indian army are very advanced. However, in high-altitude mountainous areas, any communication signal will be blocked by the mountains. In the presence of tall buildings, mountain obstructions, or heavy interference from space electromagnetic fields, the call distance can sometimes be short or even impossible to communicate. Unless there is a communication vehicle or signal base station nearby.
India lacks communication satellites, has not laid a fiber optic cable system, and even has very few communication base stations in the mountains. Therefore, although the Indian Army has introduced a lot of advanced robots, robotic dogs, and drones, it is still quite possible to say how powerful it can be.
Even Russian combat robots have a lot of problems in Syria. For example, in the field of dense buildings, the remote control distance is only 300 meters, which is 90% lower.
And during the battle, there were 19 times when contact was lost, and the longest one reached 90 minutes. Especially when there are buildings blocking the artificial control station and the Uranus 9 unmanned tank, the wireless signal of the control system will be blocked. At the same time, the 30 mm automatic gun could not shoot while maneuvering and failed several times.
The most important thing is whether it can be automatically combated? India's artificial intelligence technology can not let robots fight automatically, rather than requiring personnel to remotely control, or even wired remote control.
