Drones don't weigh enough to be a kinetic energy weapon. You'd have to strap a bomb to them (which I believe is getting very popular in certain parts of the world already).
A 'flying car' is heavy enough to do large amounts damage just by falling out of the sky. Doesn't have to have anyone riding in it to blow themselves up at the right time, a cell-phone triggered bomb will do just as well.
- SlowBro 9y agoMany drones can carry many kg of load. Any number of heavy (e.g. kinetic) or explosive payloads are an option. Molotov cocktail delivery vehicle? Why not? Requires a remote control lighter and remote release. How about dropping steel rebar? Needs tail fins for directional stability and some testing but that would be plenty troublesome. Drone mounted pistols are already here. (YouTube them.) And yet the skies are considered safe enough today. I just think there are bigger concerns out there.
