Not to minimize the horrors of this war, but the big players are learning so much. I can't imagine what nightmare drones the DOD is working on.
There's all kinds of commercial military drones around and they're obviously far more refined and thought out than this one, but it's equally crazy/impressive that with todays tehcnology pretty much any individual can just buy a drone and strap an actual rifle to it. Sure, it's not accurate by any stretch, but if you have few thousand dollars laying around (and a access to firearms) you could to this too.
That would obviously be a Really Bad Idea(tm) for multiple reasons, but from a purely technical view it's fairly simple.
