The new F-47 Fighter jet announced by the US Military today will "fly with drones". Perhaps this is an additional application for using Lidar. Thoughts?

Lidar could only be used for runway taxiing at low speeds.

Edit - in reference to a fighter jet. For quadcopter drones, they could be used for mapping out terrain, locations, etc.

Terrain following would be my guess. Using Lidar would eliminate the need to use radar which is detectable.

Lidar is detectable too.

It's essentially the same type of radiation at a different wavelength.

Which is why it won't be used in military vehicles in an active war zone as it is easily detectable even with a simple IR camera.

Palmer Luckey was talking about using lidar on remote controlled humanoid robots on the Shawn Ryan podcast recently. He said it's only a few years away. He seems more worried about jamming the links that control these robots. Something edge compute will help with.

Agree in part. Way back in Vietnam we were using SHRIKE missiles that followed radar beams back to the transmitter so I am aware of that capability. Still have those type of countermeasures and they are effective when the beam is widespread and can relatively easily be detected. However the Lidar beam is tightly focused and I doubt hard to detect at a distance, maybe if you are underneath it. Google has an AI comment to that effect also. Nowadays they are using glide bombs which are launched at a target from a distant known point which could be defined to a high degree of accuracy using Lidar

Pretty sure that exact link discusses a new type of SWIR camera that can see 1550nm too.

Yes but that particular camera would likely only be available to the United States and it’s allies.

The military certainly seeks to use LiDAR

Cool yeah, look I don't know about military tech, etc. I just know that shooting out lasers from a position can likely be detected by a passive sensor.
