Whats your choice of powpow in drone attack for real my brother just saw 50

I used to live close to Camp Pendleton. I miss their live fire days. F16's flying over dropping 1k pounders then boom boom rattling the house. Then have days of 155 Howitzer live fure. At night when the wind blew from ybe west off ocean I could hear live fire on range with 50 cal , 5.56, 7.62 and whatever else they were shooting . Then a pause and then back at it.
I miss hearing all that.
After that I lived near Miramar Air Base where they flew their Top Gun school from. Used to see F14's flying over all day then the switch to F18 Hornet and Super Hornet. I'm full of stories...🙄
The counties typically would sue the base for the noise. At least 29 palms and Pendleton.

When I was at 3rd recon, I use to bunk right by one of the sqaudrons flight lines. Crazy how insanely loud the jets got.
It got old pretty quick but that's just how the life is.

Funny thing is, with permission, you can hunt Pendleton to this day. I never killed anything out there but I use to find mule deer pieces on the range all the time. So it's important to know when it's range day and where you can and can't go.
 
DARPA has been researching tactics and concluded the most cost effective means is their BA-1100-N system with an ST-ring attachment. Released en-masse they tangle the props and bring them down. The Pb BA-1100-N could not get off the ground.
 
How about flying a smaller/cheaper drone into the larger drone's propulsion system? Harder to pinpoint the source of the attack on the larger drone I would think?
Nice out the box thinking.

They have speeds that are pretty fast. Something like a DJI mavic despite having pretty good capability, just won't keep up. Police in New Jersey have tried stuff like that.
 
My brother just saw 50 car sized drones in Loganville Ga on dec 19 .They were all up and down the hwy and as low as the top of powerlines for many miles .He was totally shocked snd so was his wife and son .These are as big as cars.I was wondeting what you would use in a drone attack I think 223 is too small and 308 would be minium .You would have to have lighted crosdhaiirs too for night times .These things are well lit .I dont even know of buckshpt would work but slugs might not be fast enought .I am totally serious yall lots of people seeing them all over the country .I think 416 rem mag would work gpod and 338 win mag .
I'm pretty sure the propellers are going to be plastic or carbon fiber. The right shot load would probably be enough. I don't know how many motors the ones being seen have, but don't think many will tolerate the loss of lift with even a single prop damaged or gone.
 
Maybe the end is really close and the Alien experiment to see how mankind reacts to common sense and all the stupid crap that's taken place in the lest few years is not worth time any more. We lost! I've got a bottle of Jack, some Deer jerky, and a old lawn chair that has vote for Dick on the back. When the big show starts I'll watch show.

That was I think a D16 or D19 deer tag there. I never hunted at Camp Pendleton when I lived in Oeanside for 11 years. That base has been there a long time. I think they marched and moved all marines and equipment from Miramar many years ago to have a separate base. Then Miramar was only a Naval Air Base . Read a story about it long ago. I'm not sure. Funny how they will build homes right up to military bases and airports the complain about the noise. When I lived in Redlands when my dad lives I had March Strageic Airforce Base a few miles to south of me and Norton Airlift Airforce Base to the west of me. B52's out of March and C141's out of Norton flying around all the time. I remember laying in bed when B52's would test their engines. The rumble was pretty good.

I ran .750 co ax cable to the flight line at March where 8 I think was B52's lined up armed with nukes along with 8 KC135's to refuel . When we made to the guard house they searched us and assigned an MP with M16 to each of us. I was up the pole and the MP was standing directly under me. I remember saying you might want to step back a little in case I drop a wrench or hammer. Lol.
They always practiced the Red Alert at night. I'd here them all take off. Pretty awesome. I heard that they don't now if it's a real one until they are up in the air.
Then came the Minute Man missiles. I hunted on a ranch in Chugwater 1983 that had a missile silo on it. Creepy walking g by at night. In 1985 or 86 they were loading the newer Minute man's in silos when I was there.
I need to edit before posting 🙄

My question when hearing multiple stories about car sized drones is why no empirical evidence I.E. photos or videos. In this day and age makes no sense at all. I'll believe it when I see it.
Keep in mind the Teflon Don and his cabinet are already receiving intelligence briefs as a part of the turn over. The government recognizes it. It's not a conspiracy…it's just weird they won't come out and say it. Which leaves people to speculate.

And also spawns stupid clip note titles like below.
