Std PC hardware can be made very robust. If you're worried about em then
faraday cage the beastie.

You reckon? Strikes me as very much game bot work. Make em cheap, make em
many, make em stealthy & make em learn.

I think the F22 is going to be outclassed by drones within 10 years. Remind
me again how long the development process has been so far & it's only
just starting to reach operational status & then there are so few &
they're so expensive, they're treated like F117'es were.

No you won't. No need to try to create every drone a richthofen. How many
AAM'es are anything other than idiots let alone savant & yet if you had
10 amraam headed your way you might be worried.

These things will be smaller & thus less visible in all ways from em to
visible. They will be hooked into other sources of info inc other drones so
they wouldn't need to emit.

We're not talking about a gun fight (yet). All that's needed is an aam
solution (preferably from behind & w/o you even guessing you were a
solution to a maths problem).
