Really goes to show what a game changer drone warfare is. 5 mil tank dead to a 300$ drone. The future is cheap and deadly

Yeah, I'm interested to see how air-to-air changes too. $5m tank? How about a $30m KA-52?

When will they put missiles on drones?

Not missiles on drones, but a similar done setup as this, but as a swarm.

20 of these spread out, going towards a helicopter could be very effective.

I don't see how a helicopter would even take out one of these FPV drones. Flares won't help, very hard to hit with a gun, and I assume too small to lock with a missile. EW countermeasures I guess.
