  Congrats! You got the first one, but what about drones two through ten?

    I’ve watched loads of combat videos from Ukraine and have never seen two or more drones after a squad. Don’t confuse possible with probable.

    If ICE came after my wife, they could use helicopters and FLIR to scope me out, after spending a few days studying our habits, and strike at 3AM. But most likely they’ll show up at the front door during the day, as in countless videos, stacked shoulder-to-shoulder, presenting a target rich environment. :)

      You don’t see videos like that because it doesn’t normally take more than one…

        And they use 10-20 per tank, so its only a question of how much they are willing to spend on a target. 20 drones per tank is still cheaper than an anti tank missile.

    How did you get a picture of me?! I’m calling white people security!

    “911, what’s your emergency?”

    “This fucker on lemmy posted a picture of me! SWAT 'em!”

    I’m poor. #7 or #8 shot, 20 and 12-gauge is all I can afford, when I can. :(

      Still better than stern words. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

  If you spot it. If you manage to get a bead on it in time. If you don’t shoot too early and lose your opportunity. If, if, if. Obviously the Ukrainians have shotguns and are still badly affected by drones.
