Earlier, military exercises in China were noticed a machine-gun, but the thermo-barric weapon will make these devices more deadly. According to the edition, the thermobaric weapon, or a vacuum bomb, uses oxygen from the surrounding air to create a high -temperature explosion, which lasts much longer than during a traditional explosion. For the damage it causes, it is inferior only to nuclear weapons. Thermobaric weapon produces a small cloud of explosives throughout the intended purpose.
Then this sprayed material is ignited. The fire ball that occurs as a result of the explosion can reach a temperature of 2500 degrees Celsius. According to some reports, it can destroy the bins four meters thick. According to the researchers, work with thermobaric weapons can be used for cleaning underground complexes in urban conditions, where targets can be hidden or have more opportunities for masking.
These are areas where GPS muffles, electromagnetic obstacles and other causes adversely affect the use of traditional weapons. Scientists also suggest that land work will work in the UAV team. Researchers have tested such groups of robots on the battlefields. During the tests, drones were evaluated by parameters such as situational awareness, command control and coordination of blows. Recall that the American company Throwflame has released a robot dog with a flamethrower for remote fire.
