Cartel drones drop 33 bombs on Mexican peasantry in a gang turf dispute
Another load of rock salt in the ass for The World's Foremost Expert on using drones (COTS: Commercial Off The Shelf models, not ginormous professional models) as weapons, with the five-millionth report of somebody using them to drop explosives on soft targets, like some of us told you years ago was not only going to happen, it already had.
We also speculated that it wouldn't take much beyond the sheer will to do it that would let someone make a soda-can thermite grenade, and pay a visit to any oil or LNG storage facility anywhere in the world, and wreak havoc for a paltry couple of grand in U$D. So don't come crying to us when that happens.
Color us shocked: Bad people will find bad uses for neutral items.
We only have metric fucktons of videos proving the theorem in the years since we first warned you about this potential, against the extensive expertise of the Canuckistani Drone Maestro in crashing his RC toys while half-potted. So you can continue to believe him. Or, trust your lying eyes.
We offer Herr Dronenkapitan some balm for his ailment, as we struggle not to laugh aloud at his predicament.
Wait till they get hold of this -- https://www.instructables.com/Arduino-Drone-With-GPS/ -- GPS enabled flight controller. Google Maps for targeting, Larger size vehicle for distance, viola! Poor man's cruise missile.
ReplyDeleteI'm surprised they already haven't been used by people with personal scores to settle . . . coming soon to a Chicago near you?
