Gun & Grenade Drones for Pakistan Army Idea #2

Yes, they were used highly successfully by ISIS in Iraq.

Gen. Raymond Thomas, head of Special Operations Command, described them as the "most daunting" threat in Iraq and Syria. During the battle fo Mosul the assault "nearly came to a screeching halt" because they were under such persistent attack. Thomas said there were up to 12 grenade-dropping drones at a time, which he called “killer bees” buzzing about underneath the US air cover, impossible to intercept.

One BBC reporter said it was “almost raining bombs” the attacks were so frequent, as the drones would drop a grenade, then go back and get another and return (sometimes to the same target) minutes later.

They were only stopped after several days when jamming equipment was brought in.

This was not a true swarm but a collection of individually remote-controlled drones. When swarms arrive they will be very much more dangerous - because, unlike those at Mosul, they will not be stopped by jamming.

Swarm attacks is the future. Also we should have drone as assists with special operations teams for COIN ops. These drones can provide visuals of local area frm above, directly to helmets of personnel, provide infra red imaging. Can also provide laser designators to target areas, can provide close support, can even have drone snipers. The possibilities are limitless.

Drone swarms could surely carry enough ordnance to flatten a bunker and avoid a risky manned assault.

Unleash swarm drone with shape charges on enemy armored column. Single truck should be sufficient to store, transport and launch several dozen preprogrammed drones from a safe distance.

Something like this would do it...

The drones of the movie are hyper fast, swarm group & large quantities of shear numbers which translates to totally impossible to stop from danger ends. Nice video.
However the drones that are in my video are anyone can convert those drones them into dangerous attack drones if attempted correctly.

Why not sneak in some with distributed swarm algorithms on board to Kashmiri freedom fighters. They can hit Indians and will be easier to get away with as well.

The drones in the video are not for re use. They are suicide bombs witch aerodynamic bodies and thrust.
They are pretty simple to make and use, just like toy planes and heli like drones in your post.

I would rather have programmed AI drones being dropped from higher altitudes instead of bombs.
