These people talk like they just love war. That’s how you know they’ve never been in one.

The poorer/newer soldiers who couldn’t afford their own equipment? Honestly, that’s how everyone did it for a millenium.

What drone is OP getting that it’s only $35? I don’t think I’ve seen them from anything less than about $200 and a good one is about $500 to $700

kamicaze drones are pretty cheap
el_bhm@lemm.ee 6 months ago
Analog fpv drone is at least €150 when produced on a mass scale. Parts alone.
This is nowhere near 35 bucks cheap.
Hupf@feddit.org 6 months ago
It’s called a grenade?
lowered_lifted@sh.itjust.works 6 months ago
the drone pictured is a mavic 3 so at least $3000
Obi@sopuli.xyz 6 months ago
This particular one is the Mavic 3 pro, indeed around that price with the accessories. It’s what I fly for work.

I don’t know all the specific models and everything, but I do know drone warfare has been a pretty big deal and so has trying to make the cheapest ones possible. Here’s a good video on the topic: youtu.be/V3eOjRhihLU
Mango@lemmy.world 6 months ago
Right? I’ll give OP $50 a pop to source those $35 drones that are at least good enough to strap a grenade to and kill people. I don’t wanna kill people, but if it can carry a grenade, it can probably carry a camera and stuff.

One of them can have a grenade, my neighbor is kind of annoying.

You aren’t looking at the same shit. There are extremely high tech drones that are huge and designed for long term use. These aren’t those. These are made as cheaply as they possibly can with one single goal: get this explosive to it’s destination. They are single flight devices.
DrownedRats@lemmy.world 6 months ago
I’ve flown a number of drones and the best drone I’ve flown that clocks in under £100 is a tiny-whoop and they’re absolutely not fit for combat lol.
echodot@feddit.uk 6 months ago
I really hope that “tiny-whoop” is it’s official name

I mean it’s not great that they made the hunter killer a reality.

Got into fpv after watching Ukrainian highlight reels. Aside from the manmade horrors beyond comprehension it looked really fun.

The shrapnel shell is the king of this. Decided nearly ever war since its invention.
Annoyed_Crabby@monyet.cc 6 months ago
It’s not strange to have one weapon being the most meta one in the server. Spear or any long poking stick has been THE meta for a long time, backed by bow. Then crossbow came along, then gun. All these are very much usable by peasant that can be quickly trained to use one. Drone though, that thing need time to specialise. It’s the new meta because the thing is cheap to produce and can defeat million dollar equipment easily
Am not looking forward when automated murder drone became the new meta.
