Russian Dron Killer Lancet received a US from the US and GPS from Switzerland-Asia Times

The Nvidia Jetson Tx2 module is responsible for the work of the AI, and the U-Blox Lea-M8S-0-10 system provides the navigation. It is known that Ukrainian experts dismantled the Russian UAV "Lancet" and found Western electronics, mostly American. Asia Times has revealed details about how these components work and are responsible for. LANCET-3 is equipped with a Jetson Tx2 module from Nvidia. This component is responsible for the possibility of artificial intelligence (AI).

According to the manufacturer's specification, Jetson TX-2 is the fastest and most energy efficient built-in computing device with artificial intelligence. This modular 7. 5 watts supercomputer provides a calculation using AI on the periphery. It is built on the basis of the NVIDIA Pascal Graphic Processor and is equipped with 8 GB of memory and a 59. 7 GB/s memory. It has standard hardware interfaces that make it easy to integrate it into a wide range of products.

Despite the fact that NVIDIA is actively promoting the new Jetson Xavier NX module on the market, which is much more powerful than Jetson TX-2, TX-2 will sell in the world market by 2028. Nvidia Shi-modules are based on advanced production technologies. Their critical integral schemes of artificial intelligence are produced in Taiwan, and then devices are collected in China at a BYD plant in Huychzhou, and at Taiwan at Foxconn in Tavaan. Some other TX-2 modules come from China and South Korea.

One of the most important components of "Lancet" is the GPS-navigation system U-Blox Lea-M8S-0-10. This device can receive navigation signals from the American GPS system, European Galileo GPS, Russian Glodas and Chinese Beidou. The U-Blox module is resistant to breakage, which makes it virtually impossible to reprogram it to change the direction of the drone. U-Blox is produced in Switzerland. The publication writes that neither nvidia nor U-Blox has violated any laws by selling these products.

Chips come to distribution centers where they are sold to end consumers. From there they get to Russia, China or Iran. Washington is trying to take measures to spread Shi-chips in China, but to control the spread of key Shi components in the Russian Federation is not yet able. If decisive measures are not taken, the Russians, the Chinese and Iranians will still be able to use the latest artificial intelligence modules for military and commercial applications, the media emphasizes.

The reason is that the production of artificial intelligence products is mainly outside the United States. This means that high -level collaboration is important. It also means that the United States will face a significant risk if the production of Shi chips, especially in Taiwan, will be stopped through war, blockade or simply through a natural disaster. Now the United States is actively building new advanced chips in its territory, which will become real help in the future.

In the future, the United States will have to find effective ways to control artificial intelligence technologies or encounter quite unpleasant consequences, as Abrams and BMP Bradley tanks, lined with Russian "lancets" in Ukraine, is a real military problem that needs solving, analysts said. Earlier, we reported that the Bradley BMP withstood the Dron-Kamikadze Lancet. Thanks to the BRAT, the car not only retained the life of the crew, but also did not suffer serious damage, analysts write.
