People laughed at NORDA for using a Raspberry Pi 4 on combat drones.
So they switched to a Raspberry Pi Zero.
Smaller. Cheaper. Less powerful.
Still runs real-time computer vision guidance on front-line Ukrainian drones.

The technology for fully autonomous drone attacks is already here.
What's keeping humans in the loop? Not ethics.
Alex Liannoy, CTO of NORDA Dynamics, explains: "In all military organizations, you need to prove that you have hit the target.”
And if you can monitor them, you can control them.
And if you can control it, why need to completely free it?

Everyone who has watched FPV drone footage wonders the same thing:
How do the operators cope?
Maj Phoenix, co-founder of Lasars Group (Ukraine's first armed drone unit): "If I see enemy soldier, I understand that it's my enemy. It's not human, it's enemy. They are in our land."
That's the psychological framework that makes it possible.

Ukraine didn't just build better drones.
They built a better incentive system for using them.
Army of Drones Bonus: destroy a tank → earn points → spend them on a drone marketplace to buy more equipment.
The more effective your unit, the better your next arsenal.

The kill zone between two armies used to be meters.
Now it's 30 kilometers, and growing with every drone advance.
Maj Phoenix, co-founder of Lasars Group (Ukraine's first armed drone unit): "This kill zone helps us to place our personnel far away from our enemy."
He says that's better.
