Does it really have a lot of military applications ? I presume weight is heavily optimized to get 300kmph. So it won’t go that fast if it carries explosives. Could be used for high value target killing. Like literally a bullet you can control, might be able to make that work. But for reconnaissance can’t the drone just go high up ? And then can’t really be shot down with a rifle ? You just need better optics.

Maybe just paint the target with a laser and follow it until the others get it.
