Part 6/13:
One of the most significant breakthroughs is the "hive mind" concept. Every sensor, drone feed, and teammate's view is fused into a unified visual system. If an enemy behind a structure is detected by a drone, every soldier’s AR display updates instantly, regardless of location. This interconnected awareness drastically alters battlefield tactics: ambushes become futile, maneuvers are transparent, and enemies lose their ability to flank or hide effectively.
Palmeri illustrates how the system tracks and displays enemy locations in real time, even through solid objects, fundamentally changing the nature of combat engagement. This real-time sharing of intelligence maximizes situational awareness, giving U.S. forces an overwhelming tactical advantage.
