美国公司AI让乌克兰廉价自杀式无人机自主追踪目标
US company’s AI lets Ukraine’s cheap kamikaze drones track targets on their own
乌克兰军方7月中旬开始接收SkyFall公司制造的Shrike无人机，搭载美国Auterion公司开发的AI自主追踪硬件和软件。操作员可手动将FPV无人机飞入战场，在约半英里范围内指定目标后切换至“发射后不管”终端制导模式。两家公司计划未来数月交付5万架配备Auterion Skynode S打击套件的无人机。
Ukrainian drone operators have destroyed many Russian armored vehicles on the ground and even military helicopters in midair using $400 Shrike drones with explosive payloads. Now thousands of such drones are getting upgraded with an AI system capable of autonomously tracking and homing in on moving targets.
In mid-July, the Ukrainian military began receiving Shrike drones made by the Ukrainian company SkyFall equipped with AI-powered autonomy hardware and software developed by the US company Auterion. The companies plan to deliver 50,000 drones equipped with Auterion’s Skynode S strike kits in the coming months.
That allows human operators to manually fly the Shrike first-person view (FPV) drones into a battlefield area, designate a target up to half a mile away and then “flip the switch to turn it into fire-and-forget terminal guidance mode,” Lorenz Meier, co-founder and CEO of Auterion, told Ars.
