BRITISH New DRONE Will Change Battlefield FOREVER! 

There is already an Agreement between the Ministry of Defence and Ukraine to facilitate the supply of 10,000 British designed & manufactured drones to the battlefield. By the way, the UK has been supplying military drones to Ukraine since 2022, including Britsh 'Malloy' drones; the latter company is now part of BAE.

I bet this drone is already obsolete on arrival. In order to keep up with developments on the battlefield you have to be present on battlefield. Get yourself directly involved or fall hopelessly behind.

😉🤘

@@user-jw3jf3ob1e NO, they are not and let's try again with a repeat shall we......" By the way, the UK has been supplying military drones to Ukraine since 2022, including British 'Malloy' drones; the latter company is now part of BAE. ". So, our drones ARE involved and on the battlefield.

You think they are not there ???

its ALL ToysR US, unless theres mass production, but these type drones are TOO EXPENSIVE for UA... They need ingenious cheap makeshift solutions...NOT shiny 1st production run type "entrepreneur shitz"

They could also be used to deliver aid.

Yeah but that only makes sense if a small fleet of these drones is cheaper than a helicopter that could carry the unit.

Or evacuate the wounded.

I wouldn't like to be under 6 jet engines pointed at me

lol u nuts? a soldier with his weapon and ammo NEVER exceeds the 300Lbs threshold...800 pounds wtf you talkin bout hahaha!!

Didn't see much of the drone here, it was mainly about the missile.

So true :) Besides the practical/military use I really do like the multi drone light shows.

Ah but you get more deaths per machine potentially with drones. This is just puerile shite....

I agree entirely. The other UK options shown elsewhere have the same disadvantage, high cost. The 6 jet engines as well rack up cost and maintenance complications. This will likely not make it into full production as it is too expensive and too complex for battlefield operation. Could be useful on warships.

Right possibly as a sentry drone for ships. But yea a very special case and very few production numbers. If they want to make medium size/cost drones then make them use cheap dumb weapons so military can use them again and again and train all day long outside war. @@glynnwadeson5605

You make a good point. But are you not considering that only at present cheap military drones are so cost effective, and so new to warfare that 'the defence' has yet to catch up in terms of doctrine and counter measures. The race is on and no one can afford to be left behind.

@@joealp8196 True, no one knows what the counter will be to cheap drones and if this will be just as effective at countering this big drone as well. So until we are at least getting a lot closer and can identify what this counter, will be it is stupid to try make a system to bypass it as well. Like trying to make a stealth jet against a sensor system post radar, even though we do not know what this would be yet.

australian miltary developed a flar pack cardbord drone for suppy drop ukraine used one to raid an airfeild

The objective is heavy lift. What prop only drone that size can lift 800 lbs? Engineers designed this, the military expressed an interest before r after the design but all long before a politician even knows about it. Clearly you don't know how government funding of military projects work.

@@IMGreg..government funding of any project has a very long history of expensive over runs

A nice heat signature with a jet engine!!!...Great for detection!!

No secret operations with a bunch of jet engines screaming away!

These are small light jets with a totally different way to increase pressure in the combustion chamber. You should listen more closely before you criticize based on misconceptions about the jets efficiency.

For your information the "expensive" drones are, already, about to enter service with the Royal Navy who required 'over the horizon' control to deliver an autonomous heavy lifting capability. That drone is the Malloy (BAE) T400 and not only is there a Heavy Lift cargo role but it has the (proven) capability, with an L3 drop cradle, to launch a BAE 'Stingray' torpedo. So, whilst you are correct about the battlefield use of small drones, there is now a service requirement for much larger drones. In the case of the Royal Navy the new in-service vertical lift drone capability is bordering on what the Westland Wasp helicopter used to do for them.

yep imagine when they start launching these cheap drones thousands at one time.

@@clivecartey Add to this the necessity for commanders in the field to be able to operate over the horizon in whatever mode your tech allows you to and the need for the, "Big toys" on top of the grenade tossing variant becomes more apparent. It's never a case of either or as some posters on here seem to think. It's more a case of covering every possible angle and layer upon layer of defence/offence. Thanks for the update on the Malloy system. I remember hearing about this capability a while back and then it all seemed to go quiet (frequently the British way I know).

They are not capable of taking supplies and ammo, carrying missiles, or evacuating wounded. The cheap drones are a good replacement for mortar and artillery. Think about the stuff they use pickup trucks for now, driving to the front lines under enemy fire. Phillip.

@@philliptemple9841 All of hat is about to change it seems.

I'm convinced that 90% pf the material on You tube is put up by 12 year olds. Hey, I'm watching it so...

This video never mentioned the range of the drone. The combat range is less than half of the absolute range so it can be refueled and re-armed. Move it quickly while doing so. Very quickly. Or wait at a distance until the hit is made to see if it recoverable, or have a second one ready to defend the refueling point. This might also be the answer to the SHAHED drone. IDK the cost comparison of a Brimstone to a SHAHED, but the value of the target of the SHAHED should be factored in. Is there a dedicated anti-SHAHED munition that can be adapted to that purpose?

It did drone on.

The drone was built around the brimstone so why wouldn’t they take time to talk about the brimstones capabilities?

with a length of 180mm and a diameter of 180mm....

It would be worthwhile ask the Ukranian drone gurus about this design

Why give them to Ukraine when you can SELL them to Russia!

We probably only have four. This must be an old programme since the RAF retired the Tornado in 2018.

Absolutely not.

Would be a waste we’ve given them enough

Don`t cry.

its ALWAYS BEEN THAT WAY- a boys mind is FILLED with ideas about killing machines...epigenetics, its anchored in our LIZZO brain^^

That box is ticked.

I saw a video recently in which the British claimed to now be the largest supplier of drones to Ukraine. The gauntlet's been laid down: Ukraine's allies should all be vying to take that top spot!

Well said. Slava Ukraini!

@@stephenmuir5030 not sure thats true concidering they are all 3d printed in country.

No shortage of supply...

Robert the supporter of nazzis. How sad.

Be good if it could carry a defence like a mini version of the DragonFire - I guess thats 10+ years away

I think you are correct in your logic Sir. @@niv8880

Nah, it’s going to cost a million quid a pop if any UK company built it😂 got to earn another Bentley for the board members 😂 the Ukraine drones cost 1500 they are disposable and take out vehicles worth hundreds of thousands more. This crap is typical British gold plating 😂😂😂😂😂

YOU have a valid point fella. @@billpugh58

This is just another military advertisement video, they always show it hitting the exact target perfectly and make it look like a game changer. They do this to get millions and billions in funding, and they are never as perfect as the video shows, and their costs always blow out.

I was thinking 18cm seems ridiculous, like a small firework.

Same length and diameter, a cube or a sphere. Not a good shape for aerodynamics.😮

I keep hearing this nonsense and you're partially correct the tank is going the same way as the battleship by incorporating more sophisticated active defences. Cavalry despite all the mythology was never effective in combat against disciplined troops their real value was in scouting and mobility they were rendered obsolete when mechanised units advanced enough to surpass them in these roles. Battleships never really became obsolete so much as they became less and less cost effective it was the range advantages of aircraft carriers that saw them supercede the battleships rather than firepower. A battleship taskforce could annihilate a similar sized carrier group with ease if it could get close enough however the carrier groups better long range fire power and situational awareness would strip the battle group of it's smaller units weakening it's air defence umbrella untill they could land enough firepower to defeat even the battleships heavy armour. This was exactly the battle the Argentine navy attempted in the Falklands war if the general Belgrano and it's escorting destroyers had managed to get close to the more modern and numerous but lightly armoured British fleet they could have landed a devastating blow if bad weather hadn't prevented their own carrier group from launching the planned diversionary attack and HMS conquerer hadn't spotted them they would have pulled ot off.

@@ianjardine7324 Fighting wars has drastically changed over the last couple of years. Trying to fight a future war based on what worked in the past is a recipe for failure.

Brinstone II range from hovering launch reported 40+ Km !!!

Would you rather be attacked by a Tornado or a Typhoon ?

I believe they have previously been used to arm Tornado aircraft.

Since I live by the sea only one is likelyto be attacking me. The other - Kansas can have them.@@chrissmith2114

@@chrissmith2114 No danger of being attacked by an RAF Tornado ... since we don't have any anymore ... went out of service in 2019.

Frequency hopping is already a thing, even Bluetooth does it. Using the gps clock for syncing is fairly trivial, the only caveat is the doppler effect, they'll have to compensate for that, but other than that 100ms or even 10ms hoping should be fairly easy to do Sending on multiple bands is also an option to avoid desync

Strange that , the company was only formed in 2019 😂 It was displayed only in 2023. Do you make a habit of posting trash ? 😮

@@A2Z1Two3 That Aircraft was the Panavia Tornado designed in the mid 70's coming into service in 1979 belonging to the UK Royal Air Force which as I said was retired from RAF service 5 years ago in 2019 so not sure which company you are talking about

@carlr9148 He was talking about the drone manufacturer, he misunderstood your comment 🍻

The length of the missile was a mistake, right? I mean, obviously. It can't be as long as it's own diameter... But how long is it? I could Google for myself but for that I would have to minimize YT and it often crashes when I do that...

thant you! exactly, this thing misses the whole point of drones.

@@noncanot Yeah, while a Ukrainian FPV drone with an antitank mine strapped on it only costs 10-15k to "Fire".

😅😅😅

Well according to the creator of this video, the missile is only about 7 inches long 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Additionally those drones they are using now are a fraction of the size of these, there is no way you can call these drones with Brimstone small!

Did you happen to notice it's almost the size of a CAR?

well, those drones aren't really that successful. You will note that they are generally only successful when the tanks hatches are open and the tank is not moving....usually abandoned tanks.

Challenger 2 tanks hit after by 10 inch fpv drones strapped with rpg warheads. It makes you wander why our transport authorities are pressing remoteid on flying toys for fun. @@cplcabs

Paint it silver?

Range. Mobile anti-drone lasers typically only have a range of a few hundred meters. These brimstone missiles have a range of at least 10km (depending on the version it can even be way more).

@@tobiasrietveld3819 Fractyl:2, it’s man portable (just) with a range of 2km with 1mm accuracy. If it’s connected to a power source then it operates continuously with virtually zero cost for each ‘shot’. Surely that’s the end of smaller drones?

@@mikebikekite1 Fractyl:2. Burns through steel flying at 100km hour.

@@seanlander9321 Do you have any videos of that? All examples I've seen of laser weapons have been at relatively stationary targets (or targets following a steady course) close by and in excellent conditions. I'm guessing the power source isn't normally a home socket. Would a reflective surface reduce the effectiveness?

Did somebody say Hypersonic Drones?😜

Those tiny jet motors - wow!

it the price of these things 400 dollar drones are blasting million dollar tanks the military should be partning with ukranine companies thats where todays best expertise is

Maybe Britain can still actually make something.

The length should probably have been cm, not mm.

Good point

No good the germans, buying these president Schultze will be terrified of unsetting putin. The chancellors knees start knocking together at the prospect of upsetting putin. I think macron was right what he said about the German chancellor?

Nothing beats it *now*. It really won't be long for anti-drone technology to catch up in efficiency.
