Russian source claims that Ukrainians are using FPV drones equipped with thermal sensors.

t.me/nwindpro/234...
“the night before Christmas (tm)” we got a “gift”. The ghoul was planted, neutralized and studied. ATTENTION. The VFU began using thermal imaging cameras on guided unmanned munitions. The sample we received has a detection range of 600-800 meters. This means that a heat-contrast (difference of a fraction of a degree) target is now visible at night, in the bushes, behind non-monolithic obstacles. However, thermal imaging cameras do not see small obstacles, mesh, or small branches. The image has a delay. Organic obstacles in the surrounding nature are clearly visible only in the morning and evening, when their temperature differs from the ambient temperature. This is complemented by the not very good quality of video signal transmission over the analog path. But! A thermal imager is not a panacea or a miracle weapon. A thermal imager is more expensive than a regular camera. Thermal imagers are useless in fog, light rain, even light snow; protective smoke helps from them. Even a plastic

Trying to dig into recent rumors about Russia developing FPV "kamikaze" drones equipped with some kind of AI/computer-vision powered automatic targeting.

The recent outburst of attention appears to date from this 1/6/24 Telegram post from Ukrainian source Serhii_Flash.

t.me/serhii_flash...
Первый раз своими глазами увидел перехваченное видео с российского FPV с машинным зрением и автозахватом цели. Более того в режиме тепловизора. Пока все сырое, но уже на фронте. Мои друзья с Минцифры давайте ускоряться с нашими решениями. Команд разработчиков у нас хватает, нужно им помочь. Для тех, кто не в теме. Пилот долетает до цели и сверху с ее обозначает, далее дрон все делает сам. Что меняется: 1. РЭБ купола бесполезны 2. Опытные пилоты не нужны 3. Потеря картинки у земли не страшна( дальность полета с земли вырастает в 2 раза) 4. Цель в движении поражается точнее Меня это все очень беспокоит. Вы же понимаете роль FPV в войне. For the first time I saw with my own eyes an intercepted video from a Russian FPV with machine vision and automatic target acquisition. Moreover, in thermal imager mode. Everything is still raw, but already at the front. My friends from the Ministry of Digital Development, let’s speed up our decisions. We have enough development teams, we need to help them. For those who are not in the know. The pilot flies to the target and marks it from above, then the drone does everything itself. What's changing: 1. EW domes are useless 2. Experienced pilots are not needed 3. Losing a picture near the ground is not scary (flight range from the ground increases by 2 times) 4. A target in motion is hit more accurately This all worries me very much. You understand the role of FPV in war.

Ukrainian technical and drone specialist Serhii_Flash observes that documents he posted to Ukraine's Delta situational awareness software were leaked to the open web - a relevant reminder about data security in conflict. 1/7/2023.

t.me/serhii_flash...
ВСI мої материалi, які я розміщував тільки в Дельті і тільки для військових потрапили у відкритий доступ (шось через добу, щось через тиждень, щось через місяць). і їх зараз можливо знайти у відкритих групах. !!!!!! Це не претензія до Дельти. Система відмінна та безпека i доступ там на належному рівні. Це людський фактор. Військовий скачав файл та кинув військовому, той іншому, той у групу, хтось із групи в іншу групу і потім у ТГ. Складно, щось приховати. Думав, що так вийде, не вийшло. ALL my materials, which I posted only in the Delta and only for the military, became open access (something after a day, something after a week, something after a month). and they can now be found in open groups. !!!!!! This is not a complaint against Delta. The system is excellent and the security and access there are at the appropriate level. This is the human factor. The military downloaded the file and threw it to the military, to another, to the group, someone from the group to another group and then to the TG. It is difficult to hide something. I thought it would work out that way, but it didn't.

Вчера испытали РЭБ-чемоданчик собственной разработки "Изумруд". Давит частоты от 900 до 5800, включая GPS. Вчера испытывали на коптерах DJI (Air 2, Mavic 3) и Autel Evo 2. Без помех коптеры долетали до позиции РЭБа, с включёнными помехами давили сигнал от 1,25км до 730 метров и на всех испытываемых коптерах легла связь, и они ушли на автовозврате. Частоту подавления GPS не включали, чтобы коптер не упал на землю (проведём краш-тест отдельно). На фронте мы коптеры будем ронять. В Крыму испытаем на DJI M300 и 3Т. Так же вчера испытывали первый образец дрон-детектора. Он простой, но оператор РЭБа сможет понять в каком направлении и на каком удалении висит дрон противника. Работает в пассивном режиме, т.е. не светится для радиоразведки. Испытания помехогенератора прошли успешно, надо закупать партию хотя бы из 5 штук и отправлять парням на передок. Штука мобильная, весит не более 4 кг, питается от промышленного пауэр-банка (мы тоже делаем, выложу чуть позже). Учитывая, что на некотор

A Russian source reiterates that the popular "1001" firmware hack is only available for DJI drones, not for Autel, Fimi, or other popular consumer models.

1/12/2023.

t.me/uavural/858
Lately, I often read - I’m selling / Buy this / Take this (etc.) *** on 1001 firmware, where *** - Fimi as in the case from the picture, Autels, Airs, 2nd Mavics, etc. There is no 1001 firmware for Auteli, Fimi and others like them. There are firmwares for them, but not 1001!!! Currently 1001 firmware is available for: - Mavic 3 - Mavic 3 Cine - Mavic 3 Classic - Mavic 3 Pro - Mavic 3T - Mavic 3E - Matrice 30 - Matrice 30T Or the entire list of models can always be viewed in the Russian Hackers group (https://t.me/RussianHackersChannel). Lists of centers where you can flash your drone: - Once (https://t.me/RussianHackersChannel/48) - Two (Old Territories) (https://t.me/proshivka1001/8) - Three (New Territories) (https://t.me/proshivka1001/6) If you are offered a drone that is not from the list and they say that it has 1001 firmware, this means that you are dealing with a scammer, or a person who does not understand them at all, and you can end the dialogue. В последнее время, часто читаю - Продаю/Вот купите/Берите это (итд) *** на 1001 прошивке, где *** - Fimi как в случае с картинки, Аутели, Эиры, 2ые мавики итд. Нету никакой 1001 прошивки на Аутели, Фими и иже с ними. Прошивки на них есть, но не 1001 !!! В данный момент 1001 прошивка доступна для: - Mavic 3 - Mavic 3 Cine - Mavic 3 Classic - Mavic 3 Pro - Mavic 3T - Mavic 3E - Matrice 30 - Matrice 30T Либо весь список моделей всегда можно посмотреть в группе Русских Хакеров (https://t.me/RussianHackersChannel). Списоки центров, где вы можете прошить свой дрон: - Раз (https://t.me/RussianHackersChannel/48) - Два (Старые Территории) (https://t.me/proshivka1001/8) - Три (Новые Территории) (https://t.me/proshivka1001/6) Если вам предлагают дрон не из списка и говорят, что на нем 1001 прошивка - перед вами мошенник, либо человек не понимающий в них от слова совсем и можно заканчивать диалог.
