LOCKHEED MARTIN UNLEASHES AI-POWERED SUPERWEAPONS TO ANNIHILATE ENEMY DRONE SWARMS
Lockheed Martin CEO Jim Taiclet just pulled back the curtain on next-generation AI systems built to hunt down and destroy swarms of enemy drones.
“We are inserting technology of all types into our systems,” Taiclet said. The company’s AI-powered counter-drone system called Sanctum uses artificial intelligence to detect incoming drones, determine whether they pose a threat, and predict where they are headed before they can be intercepted or disabled.
Taiclet added that the technology is “fantastic in being able to essentially hit a bullet with a bullet in space and destroy an incoming ballistic missile that’s threatening our people, threatening our bases, threatening our allies.”
The company is also rolling out MORFIUS, a system that flies close to small enemy drones and zaps them with high-powered microwave pulses.
“This drone that we’re building with the help of AI will enable us to attack 50 different drones with one mission without firing any weaponry,” Taiclet shared.
After watching Ukraine and other conflicts get hammered by cheap drone swarms, America is staying ahead of the curve with real innovation instead of woke distractions. Strong defense tech like this keeps our military dominant and protects American lives and interests.
