A beer delivery drone have been grounded for obvious design/missions flaws.
Drone are increasingly popular among the public as a hyped hobby. What could be the military perspectives regarding the multiplication of such vector ?
Here are some idea regarding their potential military use:
– Defenses swarm
– Generic spying (what is more different from a spy drone that a spy drone) ?
– Terrorism (Imagine the Tsarnarev using drones)
– Day one strategic assets suppression (imagine kamikaze like attack on electrical network, mobile relay, police forces offices etc..).
– Jamming
– Stealth drone (?!!)
How does the mil will cope for such an eventuality? Are you among the one that think that it is only a civil home defenses problem ‘(I do not) ? Please explain your point and view and debate.
