@OlegSimonenko It's a quadcopter. You can tell from the spinning front rotors. A quadcopter doesn't reach 200km/h.

@luiscarlospallaresascanio2374 Correct me if I'm wrong, but I haven't seen the US annexing any foreign territory lately. They have their foreign bases, but with the explicit blessing of the countries in question. If asked to leave, they will, like in the Philippines -- much to the dismay of the locals.

@larsjohansson6542 But they're not in Ukraine, dum-dum.

@RadicalEdward_115 The warhead on these is either HE or a shaped charge. Shrapnel belongs to the previous century.

@RadicalEdward_115 Shrapnel shells were pretty much replaced by HE fragmentation shells during WW1 already. The media keeps calling HE shell fragments shrapnel, but it isn't so.

@RadicalEdward_115 Sorry, I didn't know you were a mindless drone yourself.

@Biotech789 More like an RKG-3 "shot".

@supa3ek A 1kg warhead buys you up to 220mm of penetration through steel. That's plenty for a grenade.

@Biotech789 On the footage of these quadcopters you should the see tip of the RPG-7 warhead at the bottom, just like you can see the two spinning rotors now. It doesn't make sense to strap heavier warheads onto multicopters. For that, you'd want to use a winged drone instead, so that it can stick around, too, waiting for targets of opportunity.

@MonkeyJedi99 Not really. Shrapnel shells started to be replaced by fragmentation shells already in WW1. Mainstream media still hasn't caught on, however.
