low budget war in the 21st century

i search vids and pics of new, innovative and cheap ways the asymetric war of today is won
we have a shit ton of material from Syria, Ukraine and any other war-torn region of the planet
what new technikes are in use at the time?
how does the low tech war work?

bump for interesting topic
i sadly onely have the obvious answer: improvised technicals

Considering how much cheaper electronics get every year, you'd think those high tech missiles like the Javelin and the Stinger would be cheap as chips by now.
>>
>>34097117
That's both wildly interesting and terrifying at the same time. I want to know if there's a method for dealing with this kind of thing yet.
>>
>>34097239
Moving forward 2 feet
>>
>>34097239
yes interfering with the radio controls of the drone itself
>>
>>34097239
Radio jammers or literally a shotgun with buckshot. Or maybe just a piece of fabric strung three feet above the roof.

>>34097231
Any sufficiently crafty EE can cook up an optical missile in short order. Give him access to the good shit and the datasheets for them and you've got exactly that. The Spike is very much something that can be approximated in a garage.
>>
>>34097268
the drone is about 200m above ground
good luck even spotting it... not even talking about shooting it down

It wouldn't be the physical components that cost a lot in the long run, but the design and development, the software, the intellectual property, and the massive legal limits placed on the company.

I'm not sure how easy that would be, or whether it would even be worth it. It would be worth it for a state actor who's doing a carbon copy, using the same niche processor and instruction set, but some guys in a basement would probably be better served starting from scratch.

much of that cost is ensuring reliability. Usually means R&D and test out the ass, then manufacturing the exact same thing with zero changes until a new (also expensively R&D'd and tested) generation comes out.

There was vid of sniping robot at the battle of Aleppo, like a platform with a heavy machine gun, cam with telescopic lens, and tracks
The operator would move the platform into place, hydraulic legs would stabilize it and he'd start to snipe people in no mans land from cover.

not very precise but relatively easy to use and make

there is no controlling involved and some companies earn a lot by selling overprised things the front line soldier doesnt realy need

It'll be interesting to see what they come up with to get around that like they did with roadside bomb attacks in Iraq/Afghanistan.

No doubt some contractor is already working on a $6,000,000 anti-air automated platform you could tow behind a truck or tank.

Or some hand-held wireless jammer.

That drone is almost 1000 fucking dollars and isis wasted hundreds of them for their propaganda videos.

But being civilian drone a radio scanner to listen for control signals and a radio jammier to step onto eh control frequencies seems simple enough for a real military unit.
Heck just detecting the presence of a drone would be enough to allow counter measures.
>>
>>34097117
Also the size means even a lightly armored vehicle could resist it.

Battlefield Radar could also detect it pretty easy.
>>
>>34098816
This. Russians are irrelevant and a bunch of sand nigg lovers.
>>
>>34098725
120 mm mortar round costs 800 dollars
155 mm arty rounds costs 1500 dollars.

>>34098934
>Heck just detecting the presence of a drone would be enough to allow counter measures.
With current mass proliferation of such devices soldiers would be hearing "reeeeeeeeeee" in the scanner all the time.
>the boy who cried wolf
>>
>>34098705
>Or some hand-held wireless jammer.

That might be dangerous, especially if its an air-burst detonation that requires a constant radio link in order to not blow up.
>>
>>34098934
>Heck just detecting the presence of a drone would be enough to allow counter measures.
That depends on how they use there drones. If they stop useing these and just settle with radio controled buzz bombs, even if the radio is jammed. Remeber these guys are hitting targets 1 to 2 miles away.
>>
>>34099059
Jamming the drone would be half the job, it's to keep it stationary while you shoot it down.

or just buy them for 2.99 a dozend
>>
>>34097239
Civvie drones would be really easy to spoof with EM countermeasures, since they're operating on a relatively narrow radio band.

Even if they McGuyver it to operate on a wider selection of bands, any military grade transmitter would be able to just overpower them
>>
>>34097231

They are extremely cheep. <50k for a missile that has a good chance to take out an aircraft worth maybe 1mil+ is a good deal when you have atleast a couple million to work with,

The stinger's computers:

> The four-processor RMP has 4 KB of RAM for each processor. Since the downloaded code runs from RAM, there is little space to spare, particularly for processors dedicated to seeker input processing and target analysis.

That means that it has an ancient CPU: 4kb = 1/25th of this image (>>34097414) could hold the code for 1 of the 4 CPUs
>>
>>34100407
>>34097239

Military applications are known for not giving a flying fuck about what band they are operating on.

They probably just jam everything they possibly can all the time with enough RF power to kill a dove a mile away.

The technology definitely exists
>>
>>34100451
this
same goes for good anti tank rockets
even if they cost some 10k a pop they are stil waaaay cheaper then the tanks
>>
>>34100487
Not to mention that it's far cheaper and easier to train a missile team than a tank or heli crew.
>>
>>34098472
>Parabolic rockets

Tell us more. Are these like the sugar-chlorate fueled rockets the Palestinians s pester the Israelis with?
