| Summary, etc |
Taking inspiration from the flock of birds and the elaborately built ant and termite colonies, scientists have advanced the idea of drones much further by bringing in the concept of Drone swarms. In such a swarm, tens or hundreds of small drones are launched together and these can either be centrally controlled or each can operate autonomously using the power of machine language and artificial intelligence. This new concept indicates a paradigm shift in aerial warfare today. The advantages of introducing a drone swarm are many - small in size, low cost, flying close to ground, evading existing surveillance systems and the unique ability to select targets based on embedded software and sensors. Used for the first time in January 2018, the versatility of drone swarms has undergone a sea change and today they are more lethal than ever before. There are no foolproof measures to totally counter this threat today and such a system will probably take some time to evolve. India is well aware of this threat and the government is working in the direction on how to counter these threats. This new concept of asymmetric aerial warfare is very real and does pose a genuine threat to important dignitaries and vital installations. The only option available is to develop ways to effectively and efficiently counter this threat in the best possible manner. – Reproduced |
