        would this bee considered chemical weapon?
        if not, someone should definitely breed bees stinging with neurotoxins.

      Think more practical: Lazy Dogs. 13x44mm drag stabilized cast iron bullets dropped out of planes. No UXO, can be can dug up after securing the area with a magnet, hit like a .50 cal bullet.

        Unironically this might be useful. Everyone has allowed their industrial capabilities to degrade so far that raw production of high explosive and shells is a limiting factor right now. But fricking any industrial nation with some level of steel production/use could churn those things out by the tens of millions.

                Well it was hit by wind - one in a million chance of that happening in the air
                I just want to clear up that the allegations that these drones are made as cheaply as possible to drop as many grenades as possible onto vatniks to be completely nonsense

        If by "testing" you mean "actively shipping to Ukraine for use against the Russians" then yes, Australia is testing cardboard drones

        That's plywood, styrofoam, duct tape and a simple controller. That wouldn't take someone with a bandsaw more than 2 days to make.

    They'd be lucky to get 12 days before being sent to the front.

      The twelve weeks includes walking from the other side of the Urals to Leningrad and then from there to the front.

      Eбaть is the literal verb "to frick." It is not usually used as an exclamation. блядь would be a better fit.

    Surely that thing is designed to drop grenades one by one.

      Quadcopter drones are accurate because they hover. A fixed wing drone dropping unguided bombs is only getting WW1 levels of accuracy so you need to drop a lot of them at once.

        While hovering does help this
        >is only getting WW1 levels of accuracy
        is way too far anon. For one thing a slow fixed wing drone is still massively closer to the ground and moving far slower. Even guided by a human it's just plain a lot fricking easier to hit what you're aiming at from 100' up vs 12000' up. Also while given how ghetto it looks I'm assuming it's probably full manual, in principle there is no reason, even with hyper ghetto hardware, that the software can't still be fairly sophisticated. Such is the magic of software, something that took a team of phds a year to write might then still be run on any toaster in the world for zero marginal cost. Cameras and a basic 1000' laser range finder are fricking cheap too. So in priniciple it'd be perfectly feasible to rig up a plenty decent "operator highlights target, computer figures out the release timing" setup. Don't need a whole lot of math to crunch that even with pretty minimal data when you're that low. That'd get you a relatively tight cep.

        Though since grenades are also very cheap and russia favors meatwaves doesn't hurt to release a spread. Computer timed spread would be even better.

    I don't see the novelty of it, really. There are already stacked mine spreading devices. For helicopters mind you, but the idea is not exactly new.
