China is unleashing killer robots and stealth drones that carry out targeted airstrikes without a human pressing the fire button

(Full title)

--

CHINA is aggressively unleashing lethal fully autonomous drones that can carry out targeted military strikes, a think tank has warned.

The killer drones and pilotless aircraft fitted with AK-47 rifles are being exported to Asia, Africa and combat zones in the Middle East.

(Please see link for full article)

Apparently they will be ready this year.

Keep on buying everything from China. Every single bit, makes China stronger, and stronger, and stronger.

For 30 years, this has been out of control.

For real.

“Bring back manufacturing, to America.”

Nice try, Putin Troll, but doing so will raise prices 5% for Americans.

(just kidding...but that is the leftist response - they’re now Globalists, and all because of Trump!)

It is NOT just leftists.

Both parties have been selling out America, for the last generation and a half.

For real. Both.

I have concerns about this. Will you be able to buy them on eBay or will you have to go to alibaba.com. How big a magazine will you be able to use? And will you have to have them shipped to an FFL? Can you imagine the liberal heads that will explode if these things some how make it over here?

It’s been done. Some kid hooked a 9mm to a drone and put the video on YouTube.

Oh sorry I just watched the video.

Apparently they are starting production of the real stealth version this year. Not completing.

But it seems like a very large, very stealthy drone. No verticle surfaces.

Oh my goodness, right back at ya.

I sure am happy that Trump won. But he really, really needs to do something about America’s huge, record trade deficit with China.

It is a huge problem.

I have a pretty decent sized drone and it will barely lift a small cell phone. The people that have done this have had to build really big ones from scratch. One large enough to carry an AK would have to be huge.

yeah. I do really agree with you.

I do not think the answer is so much with Tariffs as it is having China collapse all of it’s barriers to trade with the USA. A level playing field is all that is needed.

But that’s just me.

There are neocons in the audience that want a full-on war, you know to add to the other 7 wars that we are already involved in. Thinking, of course, that a major superpower will not play to win. Trust me. You don’t want a war with anyone. Especially not a nuclear equipped player that has no problem spraying smallpox over using fully-atomated autonomous drones.

If the trade barriers can come down, there are billions and billions of Chinese that would buy American products made in America. They will pay absurd prices too. Right now, a Chinese Starbucks coffee goes for $6 USD, and a latte is over $10. It’s insane. Starbucks are popping up everywhere.

Wait till they try a “Cracker Barrel”...

Every time you post its the same old shit. Have you been in a coma since 2016 or do you have an extremely poor memory with respect to Trumps action against China and his America First policy?

Nice try! You should have President Xi increase your monthly payments.

The Chinese do NOT need tariffs to limit imports. They can have social pressure (with substantial automated support) applied to individuals using foreign products/services. They can super slow walk customs processing & approvals. There are many, many other ways they can limit imports.

President Trump, INCREASE TARIFFS ON CHINESE PRODUCTS TO 25%...and increase the range of Chinese products covered by tariffs. Announce further future increases (next to 50%?) absent VERY satisfactory verifiable changes by China

Sorry but America just set the all-time terrible, worst, hugest trade deficit that any country, has ever set with any other country.

Ever. With China. The worst ever.

In the year just ended. And that is even WITHOUT December added in yet.

For real.

Tariffs are due to go up to 25% on March 2 if there is no agreement. The equity markets are global and can absorb that hit now, priced in. With 100% tariffs there would be instant adjustment of the stock market to maybe 1/3 or 1/2 its value. Then a couple years of adjustments to get back the value with American manufacturing. But in the meantime a deep recession triggered by the loss in payments and liquidity that come from the market.

There's going to be an shift away from Chinese manufacturng dominance under Trump, but it will take time.

I trust our teenage kids to hack the controls and attack China with them.
