This compatibility provides a holistic and highly connected approach to modern warfare, leveraging the unique capabilities of each system to enhance the overall effectiveness of the military force.
==Development History==
The development of the ADSS began in {{AN|1713}}-{{AN|1715}}, with [[Neridia Defense Industries]] and [[Sarbanes-Lopez CyberSecurity]] collaborating to address modern battlefield challenges. Initial field tests in {{AN|1717}} during [[Operation Sovereign Borders]] revealed promising potential but also significant issues, particularly in drone synchronization and operation under field conditions. Subsequent testing and refinement phases in {{AN|1719}} and {{AN|1720}} focused on enhancing communication algorithms, implementing advanced error correction methods, updating AI algorithms, and improving navigation systems. Despite these improvements, the system faced setbacks during advanced testing in {{AN|1720}}, including difficulties in adverse weather conditions and communication delays in areas with high electronic interference. Following successful resolution of these issues, the ADSS underwent preliminary testing and small-scale deployments from {{AN|1723}} to {{AN|1725}}. Full deployment across [[Nouvelle Alexandrie]]'s military installations was achieved in {{AN|1726}}, marking the beginning of its operational service.


The first field tests of the ADSS were conducted in {{AN|1717}} during [[Operation Sovereign Borders]]. While the results showed promising potential for the system, several issues were also identified. The drones had difficulty syncing and operating in unison under field conditions, and while disaster was averted with the drones returning to their launching point, improvements were clearly needed. In response to the issues identified during these initial tests, additional testing and design refinement was conducted in {{AN|1719}} and {{AN|1720}}. The improvements focused on enhancing the communication algorithms between drones to improve swarm coordination. Advanced error correction methods were also introduced to maintain data integrity in challenging communication environments. In addition, the AI algorithms were updated to better handle unexpected scenarios, and the drones were equipped with improved navigation systems to improve their autonomous capabilities.
==System Overview==
As of {{AN|1736}}, the ADSS consists of swarms typically comprising 2,000 individual drones, an increase from the original 1,500. Each drone now weighs 1.5 kg, down from 1.8 kg, and measures 50 cm × 30 cm × 10 cm. The maximum range has been extended to 120 km (150 km with relay drones), with an endurance of 5 hours. The drones can reach speeds of up to 180 km/h, a significant improvement from the original 150 km/h.


==System Components and Specifications==
==Variants==
The ADSS comprises multiple drone units, each packed with high-resolution sensors and cutting-edge communication systems.

==Operational Scenarios==
==Integration with Other Systems==
The ADSS can be deployed in a variety of operational scenarios, including reconnaissance missions, surveillance, target acquisition, and direct combat support. In a typical mission, the drones would take off from a secure location, quickly ascend to a safe altitude, and then fan out to cover the designated operational area. Using their onboard sensors, the drones can detect and track enemy activity, relay this information back to command, and even engage targets if necessary.
The ADSS operates seamlessly with other military systems, including the [[Future Infantry Combat System]] and the [[Nouvelle Alexandrian Cyber-Electromagnetic Activities Visualization System]]. Recent upgrades have improved its integration with naval and space-based assets, enhancing its effectiveness in joint operations.


==Orders and Deployments==
==Operational History==
While the ADSS system has been designated for adoption by the [[Federal Forces of Nouvelle Alexandrie]], full deployment of the system is not expected until at least {{AN|1726}} due to ongoing refinement and testing efforts. Orders are currently on hold pending the successful completion of these testing and refinement phases.


===Setbacks and Refinements===
==Ethical Considerations and Public Perception==
During advanced testing in {{AN|1720}}, the system encountered a series of minor setbacks that have further delayed full deployment. The drones exhibited difficulty maintaining their swarm formation in adverse weather conditions. There were occasional communication delays between individual drones and the central command system, particularly in areas with high electronic interference. Additionally, the AI algorithm had some issues correctly identifying and classifying targets under certain circumstances. As a result of these findings, additional refinements are being implemented, including enhancements to the AI's target recognition capabilities, improved weather resistance for the drones, and better shielding for the communication systems to prevent electronic interference.
The ADSS continues to spark debates about autonomous weapons systems. Recent polls show 62% support for the program among Nouvelle Alexandrian citizens, an increase from 58% in {{AN|1732}}. The government maintains an open dialogue about the system's capabilities, limitations, and ethical framework.


===Future Deployment Timeline===
