Late on Sunday night, President Volodymyr Zelensky confirmed on social media that all of the operatives of the nation’s security services, SBU, who had participated in a a raid earlier in the day that knocked out about $7 billion in Russian military aircraft within the invading country’s airfields, were safe in Ukraine and accounted for.
The operation was dubbed “Spiderweb.”
“An absolutely brilliant result,” the president wrote.
“A result achieved solely by Ukraine. One year, six months, and nine days from the start of planning to effective execution. Our most long-range operation. Our people involved in preparing the operation were withdrawn from Russian territory in time,” Zelensky wrote on Facebook.
Shoot, I remember watching one of those “Tech of the Future” shows (think Beyond 2000 but it wasn’t that) back around 2008ish. It showcased some future drone tech and was talking about fully autonomous AI driven drones even back then. If its not already a reality in several countries, then its going to be one very soon.
The issue is would you trust an autonomous drone carrying a bomb?
