Red Bull showcased incredible footage from a high-speed drone during a
filming day, sparking F1's interest in potentially using the technology
for race week coverage. However, there are significant challenges to
overcome before implementation.

Key takeaways:

Red Bull's 220mph 'Drone 1' captured impressive footage at Silverstone ----

Drones are repeating WW1 aircraft development. I wonder if a Spad would be
right for hunting them. Or maybe a Waco.

As for the 'Spad', I doubt it comes even close to having
a chance. Not nearly maneuverable enough.

Actually I tend to think firing bullets at it will not
be effective. To hard to get a hit on something that
small and moving quickly. Need very small proximity fuses
on small size pellet shotgun shell type projectiles.

Probably more need electronic zappers to disrupt the signal.

---------------------------
10 gauge shotgun bore is almost 20mm, the smallest for fused exploding
shells. That could be an interesting dual purpose weapon as a recoilless
rifle that wouldn't disrupt flight or aim. Caseless propellant might be
practical without a sealed breech or anything left to eject. A laser
rangefinder on the shooter would allow firing from the proper distance for a
fixed time-delay detonation, not unlike the convergence distance of
wing-mounted guns, or for maneuvering targets dual feed like the Bradley's
could select shotgun loads.

A drone that didn't know it was being followed could be an easy target, one
that did and evaded could be a mission kill. Zig-zagging would be a
signature of hostility.

Disclaimer: In my work in military R&D I had no involvement with drones,
firearms or projectiles, or contacts with their manufacturers. What I know
came from open sources.

That's closer to my field so I can't discuss it.
