Army companies will get autonomous drones to support them in combat with ISR, targeting, and logistics. Add air defense and we're good to go.
This autonomous drone is good:
The U.S. Army has selected a new small unmanned aircraft system to push aerial capability down to the company level. Army Contracting Command awarded the contract to Mistral Inc. for the THOR Group 2 UAS, a backpack-portable multi-rotor drone designed for frontline units.
This type of drone adds to the company's ability to close with and destroy the enemy rather than distract the company and tempt it to become a mini-air force.
Add fighter drones that shoot down enemy drones, as I asked for in this Army article, and we're good to go. An autonomous combat air patrol fighter drone over the company would be great.
