US Air Force uses AI to prevent destructive attack

With the ambition to block destructive attacks, the US is developing many top secret weapons programs, including integrating AI into fighter jets.

Currently, the US military is carrying out many top secret programs with the goal of utilizing artificial intelligence (AI) systems to protect the country from the prospect of a nuclear attack.

The US is quietly developing AI that is expected to be able to calculate and research huge amounts of data (including satellite images) at a fast speed but still ensure accuracy, surpassing even human ability to detect signs of missile launch processes.

The B-1B Lancer is also in the US's AI-equipped plan.

With advance warning from AI, the US would have enough time to react appropriately. Although the project is kept secret, the US military has long shown a special interest in artificial intelligence.

The US Department of Defense has announced the use of artificial intelligence to identify objects in videos captured by drones. In addition, the US Air Force is also testing artificial intelligence systems on fighter jets and has achieved certain successes.

Meanwhile, the US hopes that the LRASM missile with artificial intelligence, which is in the testing phase, is smart enough to scare the enemy. This is an AI-equipped variant for the F/A-18E/F Super Hornet carrier fighter and B-1B bomber.

Lockheed Martin military expert Sydney J. Freedberg Jr. said that with artificial intelligence, LRASM is a big step forward from the AGM-158 JASSM air-to-ground missile program.

Manufacturer Lockheed Martin has equipped LRASM with a multi-function radio seeker and a state-of-the-art datalink. After leaving the launch pad, it will receive target data from warships or aircraft, then continue to receive target updates via a satellite connection.

When LRASM approaches a target where satellite communications are disrupted or disrupted, it will follow a pre-planned trajectory. Sensors on the missile will identify areas threatened by enemy air defenses and automatically adjust its flight path to bypass these areas.

The missile quickly descended to sea level to avoid being detected by radar systems on enemy warships. The missile's sensor systems continuously scanned the target's anti-aircraft weapon positions to increase its survivability.

Sydney J. Freedberg Jr. asserts that, with its 1,000-pound penetrator-fragmentation warhead, the LRASM missile is capable of sinking most targets at sea. For large targets such as a Slava-class cruiser, or a destroyer like the Russian Sovremenny class, two LRASMs are more than enough to sink any target.
