The Air Force wants to use electronic transportation for the targeted practice

It seems that the US Air Force has finally found a good use of the Tesla Musk Raqir from Elon Musk: its bombing by missiles.

War zone He was the first to discover that The US air defense suite is planning to buy two minerals Tesla piles for “use as microbiology targets during testing and training.” It seems that the contracting documents associated with it indicate that America’s “enemies” may soon use electronic inflorescences, and as a result, the Air Force needs to practice shooting on them. Cars are two of 33 (including Bongo, Beck August, and SUVs) that hope to buy and transport to the White Sands group in New Mexico, where they will support the task of driving special operations in the United States (SOCOM) that separates from microorganisms (SOPGM), TwZ.

The contract, which Available onlineShe claims that Elon cars will be used to “events of the targeted vehicle training flight test”, noting that in “the operations theater, it is possible that the type of vehicles used by the enemy may be transmitted to the Tesla electronic trucks where the lack of receiving the normal range of expected damage is found at the great influence.” The document adds: “The test requires the opposite of the real world’s positions. The intention of training is the preparation of operations units by simulating scenarios as much as possible of the real world’s positions,” the document added.

It is not clear what the “enemies” indicates to which the Air Force (some parts of the document have been revised), but it is funny to imagine that Cybletruck has become the favorite car of terrorists and actors other than countries.

The document also notes the unique features of Cybertruck, explaining this, in February: February:

Market research has been conducted to assess competition on Tesla Cybletruck by assessing its design and materials and resisting influence and innovative technologies. The study revealed that the Cybertruckck design strongly and the future, is strongly associated with an unpopular exterior of stainless steel, distinguishes it from competitors who usually use coated steel or aluminum bodies. In addition, its electrical structure provides 48 volts of great strength and efficiency, a feature that has only started to develop competitors.

Are these unique features that may make the car attractive to the enemies of America? It is not clear from the document. Gizmodo continues to the Air Force for more information and to Tesla for comment.

The “innovation” of the Musk vehicle was often a commercial failure, so it seems appropriate to be one of the clearest use of it-on the other side of contributing to local traffic congestion-the forgetfulness imposed by the state. According to Tesla plans to obtain a production capacity 250,000 trucks per year But less than 40,000 units were sold in 2024, according to Estimates from Cox Automotive. The model has fallen along with anemia sales this year, yet It is said He only sold about 7100 during the first quarter. The car was named “Stirring“A”to failAnd “and”The most stupid vehicle designed ever“Among other things. In recent months, the company I started presenting special offers For potential buyers, as a way to sweeten the deal. A Modern report He claimed that, amid the failure of the commercial truck, Tesla was recently studying the development of a smaller truck.
