Somehow my Twitter algorithm caught on to drone-bombs in Ukraine. Absolutely horrifying, to be honest. Some overwatch drone is filming a Russian infantry or armor soldier from above, and films as they become aware of an incoming anti-personnel drone. They either try shooting at it or diving for cover under whatever is nearby, but the drone flies right into their hideout and explodes. It’s absolutely sickening to watch someone’s son crawl about 5 ft before they slow and sag for a final time. Right or wrong, it smacks of murder to me in a way that conventional warfare does not. won’t post a link here. Now I don’t know what effective countermeasures we have to protect our guys, but we damn well better be working on them. And at scale. It’s no way to go.
