Ukraine's military intelligence (HUR) has discovered an Nvidia Jetson Orin computer module inside Russia's newly developed S-71 Monochrome air-launched cruise missile, potentially indicating the utilization of artificial intelligence technology in the weapon, as reported by the Kyiv Post on Aug. 12, 2024. The discovery was documented in the HUR's "Components in Weapons" section on their War&Sanctions portal, which tracks foreign electronic components integrated into Russian weapons aimed at Ukraine.
According to the HUR, a total of 35 electronic components have been identified in Russian weapons so far. Specialists from the HUR determined the presence of the Nvidia Jetson Orin module within the S-71 Monochrome, a recently introduced Russian air-launched cruise missile. The agency noted that the use of the computer module could suggest the incorporation of artificial intelligence capabilities into the missile, though they did not disclose the exact functions that the Nvidia module carries out within the weapon.
