I've seen a lot of these videos from this war. Not once have I seen the solider(s) be able to take the drone out with their riffles. I think they should all have a sawed off shot gun strapped to their chest ready to shoot skeet and see if that works. One that doesn't need pump action to reload and give you about 6 shoots or so.

Nice. I have not seen this one. But did you notice how it took at least two guys and the drone had to sit still for a bit? Most of the ones I see is when the drone is making its dive at a guy and they whip around and start shooting.

Kinda dumb of the pilot.

I've seen a lot of these types of videos from this war. The pilot loses connection to the drone as it gets close to the ground so they point it at the target and then about 1 to 2 seconds before impact the screen goes blank and control is lost.

That was the Coward 2000 drone model. Made by some US weapons supplier.

Must be scary as shit having drone hunting you. Saw a guy getting his face blown off and he was still alive.
