Agreed, but that has always been a problem in warfare. Though many military strategists would prefer to wound an enemy rather than killing them, because not only is that enemy incapacitated, but also (1) other soldiers have to drop what they're doing to grab their buddy, and (2) it ties up logistical resources to evac the injured and provide medical care in a battle zone.

Recently, opinions have been divided among the Ukrainian military regarding the use of civilian drones as a strike tool. Opponents of this point out that striking a civilian drone increases its chance of being shot down. Drones are quite expensive and are bought mainly by volunteers, and to get a new one you have to wait an indefinite amount of time. During this time, the unit will not have "eyes" in the sky and thus the advantage will be on the side of the enemy. It is more effective to use a drone to correct more serious "arguments": AGS, Mk. 19, mortars, artillery. However, it is great to see a target and immediately attack it, which is why the Ukrainian charity fund "Aerorozvidka" developed a special R-18 attack octocopter in 2019. It can carry 5 kg, is bigger and more reliable and can fly further than civilian variants. An improved version of the R-34 is also under development, it seems to carry more than 10 kg.

Mike needs to do LARP series called “Special Operations” that teaches tactics and survival training in action. Mike and his friends get set an objective, while another team of special operations soldiers hunt them down trying to prevent them from reaching the objective. A small camera crew is with both teams. Everyone is in full kit with blank firing weapons or sim rounds to add to the intensity. The video format can be like a documentary style show. The missions will last over the course of a few hours, the whole day, or even days. However long it takes them to complete it and then they make their way to exfil while the soldiers are still hunting them down. Any thing can happen, from an ambush, or someone gets split from the group unexpectedly like a lone survivor type situation. The two teams can be told to go patrol and maybe encounter each other leading to a firefight. Night operations. Search and destroy bomb sites. One team must protect a factory sized building while not knowing that another team is quietly making their way in. Or they can reenact real situations that our troops experienced while overseas. Im spit balling but i think this would be super interesting to watch and learn from.

Usually one position is held by 8-10 men; most constantly stay under cover in "bunkers" (dougouts with log roof), only two men stays on "eyes" with optics, radio and thermal visor. Those two are at risk, rest are relatively safe. This works for small drones like DJI products, who can lift up to two grenades.

After rolling around in pain for a few seconds he pulls out a grenade from his kit and commits suicide with said grenade. Other vids out there, some RU soldiers/conscripts committed suicide with their rifles after being badly wounded by a drone; shit is dark as fuck. This war isn't a fucking movie or game to watch and enjoy. These are still real ppl with families back home who care about their friends and family out there on the battlefield. Lots of the conscripts and regular professional soldiers(non-drafted/conscripted) are out there fighting for RU against their will. They can't walk away from the battlefield either because they face execution/torture by their own comrades if they try to run or surrender to Ukraine cuz RU command doesn't tolerate it and punishes them harshly. Don't dehumanize someone not on the side you support.

[@AverageAnthony]

@@tsugumorihoney2288innovation, tech has gotten vastly cheaper since the introduction of drones in the late 2000’s, mass production is rampant now and cheap Chinese drones/radios can be made for a fraction of the price they once were 15 years ago

[@boguslav9502]

I always thought that having rapid deployable drones would be a huge advantage. My concept was a motor like deployment system with 270 fov and possibly thermal. Drone gets launched and just hovers and gives troops a clear view. For retrieval it either self destructs if you can't get to it. Or the pilot takes over.

[@regulator18E]

​@@tsugumorihoney2288 what? Defence contractors have been doing the whole "cheap drone with a grenade" thing since at least 2017 (where I personally saw them at the international defense exhibition and conference).

More importantly, imagine someone using these drones on you or your squad while you are distracted by being in the middle of a fire fight. The constant shots would make it almost impossible to hear the drone, and who is scanning the sky for a tiny drone in the middle of a fire fight? Now even worse, imagine a dozen of these drones coming overhead at once and making some well placed drops with nobody on the ground realizing it... It would be devastating.
