Robot Wars: Junk Heap that floats?

Video

One of the ‘robot’ ships at the U.S. Navy’s UxS IBP 21 looks like something ‘boat people’ from Cuba would make.

USN photo by Petty Officer Second Class Brandon T. Williams-Church.

This floating target is based on the Low-Cost Modular Target (LCMT) system.  The LCMT system was designed to replace all previous different towed target systems.  At UxS IBP 21 all kinds of radar, sat-com, and other electronics were piled onto the LCMT.  The triangular things are radar reflectors designed to mimic a much larger ship.

Perhaps the hi-tech LCMT was the ‘beyond the line of sight’ target sacrificed to a Standard Missile-6 launched by USS John Finn (DDG 113), on 25APR2021: “We are going to do a live-fire offensive exercise. We are going to use the unmanned surface, unmanned air and manned air and surface to provide a targeting solution…. It will be an offensive missile, and we’re going to strike a target well beyond line-of-sight.”-Rear Admiral Jim Aiken, Carrier Strike Group 3

 

UxS IBP 21 stands for Unmanned Systems (not sure why there is an ‘x’ in the acronym) Integrated Battle Problem 2021.  UxS IBP 21 is the first ‘classified’ USN wargame involving robot vehicles and weapons competing against people operated systems, apparently spurred by doubts coming from the U.S. Congress: “With the recent acquisition failures on the last several ship classes, those of us on this committee are skeptical of the Navy’s ability to shepherd this new technology into employable assets that contribute to the lethality of those forces.”-Representative Elaine Luria of Virginia

IBP 21 took place from April 19th to the 26th.

Sea Hunter is the result of a DARPA Anti-Submarine Warfare challenge.  Anybody old enough to remember when the activities of DARPA were considered nothing more than ‘conspiracy theories’?

Robot Wars: MANTAS Devil Ray

Video

On 17APR2021, the Maritime Tactical Systems‘ ManTAS (Man-Portable Tactical Autonomous Systems) T38 Devil Ray robot boat was demonstrated just prior to the U.S. Navy’s (USN) UxS IBP 21, in San Diego, California.

U.S. Navy photo by Senior Chief Petty Officer Michael Jones, 17APR2021.

According to an article published in March 2021, the T38 (38 feet long) Devil Ray is a combat resupply boat able to carry up to 4-thousand-5-hundred pounds in a single load.  It is the latest in a line of unsatisfactory attempts to create a compact robot logistics system.

Video, by Petty Officer 3rd Class Casey Trietsch, of the Devil Ray tooling around San Diego:

The Devil Ray looks like a racing boat because it is a racing boat.  According to BlueZone Group (Maritime Tactical Systems’s dealer in Australia and New Zealand) “The MANTAS USV vessel is a catamaran hull design based on a powerboat racing vessel that set world speed records.”

Pandemic Logistics Shenanigans: Canned Pet Food? Conspiracy to jack-up prices? Blame China?

Image

26 April 2021 / 23:50-UTC-07 Tango 06 (07 Ordibehesht 1400/15 Ramadan 1442/16 Ren-Chen 4719)

Photo by AAron Hutchins, 25APR2021.

A recent visit to the Pocatello, Idaho, Fred Meyer revealed that not only are they still out of cat litter, but now they are out of canned cat food!  Notice the blue stickers all over the shelf fronts, they say “Sorry for the inconvenience”.

Across the street at Winco, they are still low on the top selling cat litters, but are also showing fewer stock of canned cat and dog food.  Fred Meyer is also showing a declining stock of canned dog food, but they’re not out of stock, yet.

It doesn’t help that in the past month several brands of pet food, in the U.S., were recalled due to salmonella.

A quick check of the inter-web and I discovered that shortages of pet food is making way more international news than shortages of cat litter, and this time most of the international news media isn’t blaming the pandemic (except for a Fox TV station and other news outlets in New York).

India:  Government orders pet food makers to boost production.

New Zealand:  Global supply issues and shipping delays hit the family cat’s dinner plate.

Whiskas among big-brand pet foods hit by global shipping issues.

United States: Cat Food Shortage Leaves Pet Owners in a Bind.

Pet food shortage: Fancy Feast, Friskies and 9 Lives.

These Three Beloved Pet Food Brands Are About to Skyrocket in Price.

I also checked for news regarding the logistics industry.

An interesting report out of India revealed that several India airline companies are now contracting to be CoViD-19 oxygen and vaccine cargo haulers in Hong Kong, India and for “private entities” in the United States.  Also, Singapore government-owned Temasek has partnered with Air India and Amazon to airlift oxygen concentrators.

The fact that so many shipping companies are shifting to more profitable CoViD operations can only negatively affect the supplies of everything else.

Siddharth Jain of Inox Air Products, revealed in a recent interview why the current craze of shipping liquid oxygen to CoViD hospitals is screwing up the supply chain, at least in India: “….this has never been done anywhere in the world. Liquid oxygen is not designed to travel thousands of kilometers. Usually, plants are set up where there is a requirement…” 

In New Zealand, University of Auckland Centre for Supply Chain Management director Tava Olsen said supply chains were supposed to flow smoothly like water, but the whole chain had become ‘lumpy’….blames it partly on China.

Covenant Logistics Group just revealed they’ve been restructuring their operations, and admitted that “…supply chain disruptions, and an intensifying national driver shortage, all of which have continued into the second quarter.”

Crain’s New York Business interviewed an ‘expert’ who stated that the pandemic shift to more e-commerce revealed that there is not enough warehouses (believe it or not) dedicated to stocking merchandise for e-commerce sales.  The expert also said the logistics industry is ramping up its use of A-I and robots.

A new article by Logistics Manager says the advent of the pandemic, Brexit, China trade problems, and the recent blockage of the Suez Canal, revealed that the shift to a logistical system operated more with A-I and robots, and less humans, doesn’t work!  It also agrees with the Crain’s New York Business ‘expert’ who says there just aren’t enough warehouses to support the new logistics system.

Photo by AAron Hutchins, November 2013.

At the end of last year the Pocatello, Idaho, Fred Meyer began operating as a ‘fulfilment’ center for their e-commerce and pandemic ‘pick-up’ sales.  The brick-n-mortar store is now serving double duty as an e-commerce warehouse, but that doesn’t mean they’re carrying more stock.

I’ve written several times in the past that the so-called pandemic panic attack buying is actually a major problem with the globalized supply system, in which bigger logistics companies were taking over and shutting down smaller competitors, and switching to a new A-I system with robot workers instead of humans, just before the pandemic hit.

Vehicle I-D: Stryker M-SHORAD

Video

U.S. Army anti-aircraft units in Germany are the first to be upgraded with the new Stryker Mobile Short Range Air Defense (M-ShoRAD) system.

U.S. Army photo by Captain Jordan Allen, 21APR2021.

On 21APR2021, the 5th Battalion, 4th Air Defense Artillery Regiment, 10th Army Air and Missile Defense Command, unveiled their new Stryker M-ShoRAD.

USA photo by Captain Jordan Allen, 21APR2021.

It turns out that your typical ShoRAD (Short Range Air Defense) system requires the user to stop their vehicle (like the HMMWV Avenger system) before firing any one of their anti-aircraft weapons (guns, missiles).  The M (for Mobile) ShoRAD allows vehicles to keep moving while tracking and shooting at enemy aircraft (shoot on the move).

USA photo by Captain Jordan Allen, 21APR2021.

The M-ShoRAD has been in development for several years (officially since 2018 via a ‘directed requirement’, unofficially since 2017 as revealed by IM-ShoRAD Project Manager Colonel Chuck Worshim). It was developed under the acronym IM-ShoRAD (Initial Maneuver Short Range Air Defense).  In February 2021, the 5th Battalion, 4th Air Defense Artillery Regiment, attended an ‘IM-ShoRAD University’ in Germany, the class was taught by personnel who spent time at the end of last year learning the new system in New Mexico.

USA photo by John Hamilton, December 2020.

In December 2020, personnel with the 5th Battalion, 4th Air Defense Artillery Regiment, traveled to White Sands Missile Range, New Mexico, for familiarization with the new M-ShoRAD.

A video, by John Hamilton, recorded on 01DEC2020 showing the launching of a missile, and striking of an aircraft target, but it does not show the Stryker firing on the move:

A John Hamilton video from 26FEB2020, showing all weapons being fired during what’s called a ‘safety test’, but alas, the Styker is not firing on the move:

The M-ShoRAD system is made by Italian owned Leonardo DRS (Leonardo is the name of the Italian owner, DRS used to be known as DRS Technologies).  M-ShoRAD uses Hellfire missiles, Stinger missiles, XM914 30mm gun, and the M240 7.62mm NATO gun.

Desert Storm: Aircraft Graveyard

Operation Desert Shield/Storm can be considered the last battle of the undeclared Cold War.  It was totally one sided, and can’t be considered a ‘war’.  The battle annihilated the Iraqi air force.

These U.S. Army Air Force (USAAF) photos were not released for publication until the middle of 1946, a year after the war in Europe officially ended.  One reason for the late release of the photos is that many did not begin arriving ‘state side’ until the end of 1945, remaining with their respective units until the units returned to the U.S. or were disbanded.
