Appears to be priced around 12.000 USD. Scary. And it has phased array radars.

I fully believe in systems like this.<p>But they&#x27;re going to need pretty advanced many-flight mission planning capabilities to really work. And they&#x27;re going to need to be incredibly resilient&#x2F;repairable.<p>Why? Well, look at the stats, you do the math:<p>&gt; <i>50 kg spreading. Spreading 108 kg&#x2F;min.</i><p>Yeah maybe it&#x27;s not spreading&#x2F;spraying at full tilt all the time. But it probably does need to be able to make dozens or hundreds of trips &amp; refills a day to be of service on a real farm.
