Ukraine’s early adoption of ‘first-person view’ drones tips the scales against an enemy fighting a conventional war.

    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
