i doubt that engine is actually afterburning irl

Its not, just regular jet engine

An UAV its like 60 cm long, and a kamikaze drone can go to like 2 m or even the size of a UCAV (8 m).

If they are easier to hit and can’t do those erratic janky flight paths it would help a lot

@gfdsa_killer

Im sorry, I meant 0.5kg - 4kg max.

that sounds a lot more reasonable, the bigger ones will still be able to take out a tank with a good hit, I know a 4kg HESH will over pressure an Abrams.

@gfdsa_killer

The ones that are really a problem are those little ones with a rpg attached like we saw in the trailer. For me they shouldn’t add such small kamikaze drones.

yeah, these are the ones I’m most worried about, but at least they are infantry equipment so shouldn’t bleed through into GRB, which is my main concern with the vehicle mounted ones.

Of course thats what I was saying, even with the list of drones I posted. The only little and maneuverable drones should be for anti-infantry like the Spike 1x with 2kg TNT.

But by looking at that drone in the trailer, I doubt it.

The bigger the drone’s warhead, easier its to shoot it down and less maneuverable.

we will have to wait and see how it pans out. My main thing is I don’t want to be getting spammed with loitering munitions in GRB, we already have heli CAS and plane CAS, we do not need tank CAS too!
