New technologies in the Armed Forces: a military man said how long it takes from an idea to being put into service

He noted that technologies are developing at a fast pace only in the mass media, and in fact this process requires a lot of time and effort.

More than 50% of what fantasy writers come up with is realized. And mostly science fiction – these are harbingers of future technologies.

This was said by Valery Borovyk, chairman of the board of the New Energy of Ukraine alliance, UAV developer, commander of the special unit of strike drones “White Eagle” on the air of Ukrainian Radio.

“As for nanofibers, this is still a fantasy, but it is possible ahead. Lasers will not cut drones, as we see in fantasy films. They will simply “heat” their electronics, which will either explode in the air, or simply break and fall. That is, all these laser things are possible in the future,” the military man expressed his conviction and added that their partners from Australia are working on this technology.

According to him, also the Australians are working on the technology of detection and tracking of targets so that they can be tracked and neutralized without the help of a person.

Borovyk noted that the development of advanced technologies requires a lot of effort and a lot of time. “They say that technologies are developing at a fast pace. They are developing at a fast pace in the mass media, and in putting them into operation, in bringing them to combat capability, if we are talking about the military sectors, then these are years, if not decades,” the military officer emphasized.&nbsp ;

In addition, Borovyk commented on the actions of traitors who transfer technology to the enemy. “It's a shame. How can you improve the means that kill you, your neighbors, your loved ones and erase your city from the face of the earth,” the military man wondered.

He assumed that these old people who worked in the aerospace industries, were very closely linked by cooperation with Russia.

“Thanks to our developments and specialists, Russia was a leader in these industries in the USSR. After the separation, they left connections and they can be easily integrated into the system I will not name, but our leading institute developed a part of the “Comet” system, which is currently used in Russian drones. But it cannot be blamed either, because it was in 2003.
