The future of warfare: A $400 drone killing a $2M tank
Ukraine’s early adoption of ‘first-person view’ drones tips the scales against an enemy fighting a conventional war.

If only we could be sure that $400 drones will only ever be used to kill tanks, and never to kill neighborhoods ...
I'm waiting for the panic that will happen at the first political assassination using drones
Several years ago, before COVID, the Japanese government was on high alert because someone parked a drone on the roof of the Prime Minister's office. Small traces of (harmless) radiation were detected on the drone and no one knows who put it there or why.
It’s entirely possible someone just flew it around near Fukushima, brought it to near the PM’s office, and then parked it on the roof as a political statement
Im pretty sure I read a few years ago someone tried in like south america, I'll have to look it up
That would make HOA meetings rather ackward... and dangerous.
I wonder if the second amendment people will get behind drones. It isn't like you are going to be able to defend your house when someone across a continent can set it on fire.
Imagine that brave new world. People walking around with a personal protection drone following them. Schools needing to invest in Iron Dome type anti-drones drones.
You can. It takes a much bigger drone to kill an entire neighborhood.
Bigger drones, or just more drones.
Yeah for now. What happens when someone attaches a laser to one that can start fires?
