✅Olga Harlan's victorious saber turned into 16 Saber turrets for the defenders!

This was made possible thanks to your donations during the auction and raffle of the flag with the champion's signature and the opportunity to meet her for coffee.

🫶Many thanks to Metalist 1925 for the winning contribution of 10,000,000 and everyone who joined!

"Sabres", which we purchased for UAH 11,679,254 from the auction and raffle, have already left for the military with 5 OSHBr, 25 OPDBr and 57 OMpBr.

🇺🇦Together to victory!

Those already exist. But there isn't a machine yet that can replace infantry, which is why some of scariest technologies coming up are the smart fire control systems on infantry rifles.

Soldiers identify the targets they want to hit, get their rifle in position, aim, but the gun fires itself when it's calculated it's best chance of hitting the target.

Yeah, the Dutch military has ordered a bunch of these for testing against drones too.
