It is an excellent hobby to have!
The military drones mentioned in the video and the commercial drones for hobby are completely different, though.
One is commercially available and used for hobbies, and some in a professional manner, while the drones in the video are military drones used for battle.
But… question probably are flying drones a big deal now and have laws been enacted against them?
The laws are really strict if you would like to be an official certificated remote pilot in the US.^[[1] www.faa.gov/uas/…/become_a_drone_pilot]
Flying Near Airports^[[2] www.faa.gov/uas/…/flying_near_airports]
Drone operators should avoid flying near airports because it is difficult for manned aircraft to see and avoid a drone while flying. Remember that drone operators must avoid manned aircraft and are responsible for any safety hazard their drone creates in an airport environment.
Airports in Uncontrolled Airspace
For flights near airports in uncontrolled airspace that remain under 400’ above the ground, prior authorization is not required. When flying in these areas, remote pilots and recreational flyers must be aware of and avoid traffic patterns and takeoff and landing areas. A drone must not interfere with operations at the airport must yield right-of-way to all other aircraft. Uncontrolled airspace and other flying restrictions can be found on our B4UFLY app.

Yea since I have been doing a deep dive into middle eastern terrorist groups not going to click on those links. Just kind of a lit a bit weary of it no offense or anything I appreciate it and will document but its hard for me to belive that Israel can’t just have a Mossad sniper take them right out or their iron dome.

I am not sure why that would be a problem though, but it is good to be cautious of government spying.
