  1. Part of me wonders if this would be more effectively used as an air-defence drone rather than ground attack.

  2. Man it’s going to be a real problem trying to outrun these hunter killer drones in the future. This is just proof of concept for a tiny little drone with the capability to kill being used, not during war, but by police and other agencies. Grim tidings 

  3. this but with a smaller gun that has its own gimbal aiming system and ai controlled targeting system

    Even if the accuracy is terrible they’re probably pretty effective for suppressing enemy positions

  5. That will for sure get their attention of you want to give them something else in surprise…

    OMG… Insane…

  6. Now put a laptop motherboard on it and use a computer vision model for aiming instead of doing it manually over a barely leggible analog camera.

    Imagine standing still because you think a fpv with a shitty camera is coming your way but then it starts fkn shooting at you

  8. Who is joining a bet on how long until we see it’s first “effective” use?

    I bet it’s 4 weeks until the first encounter with a quad/golf cart.

    What are your predictions?

    Einstein said we would be fighting with sticks and stones…what he didn’t realize is that one side would be throwing them at assault rifle drones. Lol

    bird shot drum mag in a saiga and make it rain on the trenches, but dip the bullets in a bucket full of shit first.

  11. I doubt it’s very effective, but it’s enough of a danger not to act upon being shot at, so at worst it’ll flush people out of their positions.

    We are watching what is the crude version of a potential terrifying future to warfare thousands of machine gun drones could be autonomously sent to a certain grid with the goal of killing anything that moves in said grid with no outsider input other then the initial target coordinates
