Sandhills Project

🤔

Exciting exchange between Gen Georges, Chief of Staff of the Army & @sencapito calling out @hermesrbt cost-effective autonomous M113 breaching kits in today’s hearing

@GrandpaRoy2 In a year or so this will probably be fully automated with drone swarms mapping large areas autonomously. The next step is to have other drones place shaped charges to blow up the mines.

Ukraine has developed a drone mine-detector called “Brave 1”. It can survey 3000 m2 on a 30 minute charge. The drone scans the surface and creates a map of metal containing objects using GPS tags. It grades the size of each detection and attaches photos or video of the ground.

The Sandhills Project is making significant strides towards innovation! Our Soldiers have been working tirelessly with industry partners to employ UGVs to breach complex minefields. Keep an eye out as we continue to push the boundaries of what's possible. Be Relentless!

The Sandhills Project executed precision neutralization of anti-tank mines via sUAS during a period of darkness this week. As members of the @18airbornecorps we own the night. #ArmyTransformation
