That’s almost already a thing, I’ve read it ITT.. Some type of top attack anti tank mine that uses signal processing to specifically recognize Russian tank engines.
I think you're conflating two systems and adding a possible method of action of the third.
There was an anti-tank Russian acoustic mine of limited proven utility that Russia claims is able to tell the difference between cars and tanks, and russian tanks and NATO tanks.
There's limited info and most of the capabilities are speculated based off the M93 Hornet which is nearly identical. IIRC the actual mechanism of action was waiting for a big enough diesel engine to come close enough to shake the seisometer.
There is also a Russian anti-personnel mine the POM-3 that claims to be able to signal process human footsteps.
(and to be able to tell civilian and soldier foot steps apart; lol)
There was also a "networked" version of I think this mine I can't find the video on now (90% sure posted in this thread) where the "base" was suppose to ID the 2nd person to come into range before detonating and then the other mines would sleep who hold on detonation for a couple minutes then explode so they'd get anyone running to help.
It is speculated that the Lancet loitering muntion (and possibly the swtich blade as well) might use acoustics to tack targets in the terminal phase.
. What
Dassault Rafale offers,
Saab's Gripen series are just some possibilities if POTUS is perceived as erratic. The Gripen scored well
when Canada was assessing new combat aircraft (that took nearly 30 years, maybe Maple syrup slows em down a bit), a decision which ended with choosing the F-35. Maybe Trump will have to order Vance / Bowman / whatever he's called to wear a dress again to assuage liberal Canadian anger.
the F-35 makes more sense for Canada being they don't need to pay Ocean freight and the odds that they might need to respond to a Chinese/Russian incursion - sort of the same reasoning you never saw Canuck Typhoons. Additionally the UK is stuck with the F-35 (but doesn't seem to mind beause they aren't repeating fake memes about a killswitch) so you have commonwealth interoperability to think about.
The Gripen and Rafale only work from a operational costs perspective - which if Canada was worried about costs, they should just go the Mexico route of "Fuck it, the US is right there".
I heard on the internet the Trump plan for Canada is to send someone over in Blackface to get elected and then ruin Canada's economy and national unity by importing tons of foreigners. We'll have to watch and see how that plays out.
If someone told you the Mexican cartels are doing what they do in order to increase funding for law-enforcement and improve the quality of background checks for government work, you would dismiss that as laughably absurd, and you should treat claims about Trump's action being some gambit to make NATO countries increase defense spending the same way.
The Mexican Cartels have not been demanding for decades that US law enforcement up its spend to meet treaty obligactions. US Law enforcement also didn't import a over a trillion dollars of Cuban Cocaine while laughing at the Zeta's head when he warned them against such action. And then the Fidel Cartel begins a street war in Jamaica US law enforcement didn't continue to import nearly a 100 billion in Cuban cocaine a year for the next three years.
What the TDS infection ward can't seem to get around is:
Trump very clearly gives no fucks what the Eurocuck "allies" think as they continue to fund Russia. He sent Vance to shit on them on their own turf, has called them faggots to their faces, their armies are jokes.
So if Trump is a Putin stooge as the TDS brainrots repeat with no variation, and is completely dead set on pulling out of NATO, why not just roll up day-1 and cancel sanctions? Whay make the pretense of humoring them? Europe very clearly can't get enough cheap energy, their banking sanctions would only be limited to EU banks, there's no reason to go through the shadow boxing and risk European rearmament.
Trump could have non-Autopen signed an EO dropping all sanctions 5 minutes after taking the oath of office sidelining all aid, and Europe couldn't have done a damn thing other than cope, seethe and dilate. And after about a month of seethe and performative action the EU would have been be right back to importing their 100+ billion of Russian gas again, just with more blind dodges.
So why continue the charade? Why bother turning Ukraine aid & intel back on if Trump is just going to sign the country over to Putin?
Or maybe Trump has a boogey man he can use to get the EU to actually hit their GDP targets like they've all now pledged to do after ignoring decades of polite requests, even ones from their favorite person of all time, Obama? Maybe Trump can nicetweet about Putin, talk about leaving NATO and only
now all this stuff they've been warned about actually a problem requiring action other than trying to figure out they can skirt sanctions.
Its all just TDS and Eurocuck deflection from the fact they were and are the #1 funder of Russia. They demand the US do more as they send to Russia nearly triple the value of the aid they sent to Ukraine. This war was only possible because of equipment bought with European funds, Russian economy only has been able to continue through three years of war because they are still importing tens of billions, Russian baltic access is still unrestricted. But the Euro Leaders can do no wrong.
And most the Euro contingent around here still refuse to acknowledge this, and instead continue on with Orange Man Bad.
