minus-squareroguetrick ( roguetrick@kbin.social ) linkfedilinkarrow-up2·3 years agoSuicide drones make much more sense than this stuff for large munitions. All those engines and batteries for a platform that’s very likely going to be destroyed anyway. Those cardboard, rubber band catapult launched planes are much cheaper.
