i don't know, i think the term is very understandable and fitting. everyone knows what kamikaze planes were, so when they hear the term 'kamikaze drone' they know it must be about a drone sacrificing itself through a planned, destructive collision. i actually disagree more with your suggestion of calling them 'cruise missiles', as that's an actual current-day term which is actively being used to describe weapons in current conflicts. they're self-navigation missiles cruising to their target. most of the 'kamikaze drones' we see in ukraine are being flown by humans, the only reason the operator doesn't die is because they're controlling it remotely/virtually. i get what you mean, however i don't understand why it bothers you so much. lots of terms and words we use are not 100% accurate but understandable because of a shared context.
