Well except if you hit it with very small caliber, those kind of drones aren't made to be very tough

i mean

thats sula 30

there aint much to hit unless you can fuck gyro

Oh I was thinking of a wider wingspan

Then it's even worse

its basicly just urban cruise missile

If you hit the main body you'll probably fuck up the insides

miniature tomahawk

if they are not armored on military gear...

Which will contain the telemetry and communication instrument

You can't really put armor on it

It's a small drone, not a fighter jet

thick enough glass if its visualy guided and done

Thick bullet proof glass isn't weightless

small camera hole does not need that much glass to be protected

Same for the body frame

i mean it aint hellfire what has eye size of a fist what gimbals

i watched a video where some guys were flying an RC plane, and they would fly it around, land it, then use a holesaw to put a hole probably the size of a coke can in it, then try to fly it again and by the time it was finally not able to fly anymore, there was more plane gone then there was left
so its gonna be pretty tough to stop something thats flying at you

and if that wingspan is 2 meters then that pod in the midle is probly closer to 20-30 cm?

RC plane don't carry a 2kg payload, nor military grade com equipment

nor have military grade motors and engineering in them

rc planes *can* and *do* carry a 2kg payload

Which is shit if you've been anywhere near military grade equipment in your life

so indeed shooting small and fast fucker like that whats coming right at you from any angle would be nightmare

shoot it with CIWS?

^the only option^

CIWS would be overkill

And not even sure it's gonna pick it up

:DDD CIWS

(might, but not sure)

and destroy everything near behind or around it

:D

To me it's just a small gadget that looks good on specs but isn't really a viable option in a real environment

for car whats idea is to get close undetected pop drones and fuck off

the intention of CIWS is exactly not to shoot anything behind it

that thing is quite horrible infantry wise

Plus if you need any kind of precision with it (and since it only got a 2 kg payload you're not gonna use it to take down buildings I guess), you'll need some heavy coms in order to not be jammed easily

i mean with CIWS spread, and ammo size and speed you are certain to hit anything behind that thing

and since the article states "diving at speeds of 180 kilometers an hour"

it's implied they are up in the sky
