The first drone to disperse rallies
In 60-70 people were optimistic about the future: launched Sputnik, landed on the moon, tamed nuclear power. It seemed just about to launch tokamaks, to master orbit and settle neighboring planet. And the only journalist George Orwell (though he died in 1950) did not share the general rejoicing. However, his strange book "1984" was not interested contemporaries.
Today we see that the work described in Philip K. Dick, and other authors of cyberpunk, and George Orwell, is becoming reality with frightening accuracy. Meet the Skunk - The world's first drone designed to disperse street demonstrations. Big Brother loves you,% username%!
UAV production company Desert Wolf is equipped with four guns with paint, which is supposed to mark the protesters for further detention. Searchlight mounted on it and a speaker through which law enforcement agencies can access the demonstrators, urging them to disperse.
On the drone instead of paintball guns and other equipment is placed, for example, spraying pepper gas. In the same gun and charged more traumatic plastic beads. Rate of fire: 20 rounds per second. Developers are confident that 80 bullets per second with pepper brandy stop any crowd.
Payload vosmimotornogo machine - 45 kg, and the trunks of 4000 with ammunition bullets weigh 15 kg, so there is a good stock.
UAV is equipped with two high-resolution cameras to shoot the crowd, as well as an infrared camera for use in the dark.
Desert Wolf has already started production of drones, there are the first customers (mining). The company also offers other models of UAVs, including Wasp helicopter for tracking purposes in the daytime and at night.
