Convenience for the Japanese generals began to integrate What will happen if tomorrow the Chinese attack Japan? Perhaps this is exactly the question that revolves around the minds of the Japanese and pushes them towards military reforms. Especially when it comes to the distribution of already limited resources. The ground self-defense forces are going to integrate air defense control systems, anti-ship missiles and artillery at the division level. For the next fiscal year, the Department of Defense requested about $113 million for this. The new development will be led by Fujitsu: reconnaissance and radar information about ships, landing forces and approaching missiles should appear on a common electronic map. Your units will also be displayed there to quickly determine who can respond to a threat and with what. For remote islands, the project is necessary to save ammunition, because they are very dependent on their transportation. If enemy aircraft, missiles and landing forces are operating at the same time, it is important to correctly distribute targets between units and not waste scarce funds where other weapons are sufficient. But we are not yet talking about artificial intelligence, which independently decides where to shoot. The launch orders will remain with the commanders - the system should first of all give them the overall picture. But for the next application of AI, it also fits - in Tokyo they are only considering using it to help make decisions. The project shows an important turning point. The Japanese are developing not only long-range weapons, but also means that allow different systems to be used in a coordinated manner. However, a single card alone does not guarantee success: the value of the system will be determined by how quickly you can receive data and transmit commands when communications are damaged. - Your ticket to quiet confusion Support us.
