I've got a question, Paul. How susceptible would these UAVs be to a
good, old fashioned "thumping"? I guess the question would go to any
of the experienced fighter guys, too.


I cheerfully admit that I don't know - we don't have enough spare UAVs
for that kind of trial

Do we even need to shoot the *******s?


I'd like to keep the options open. Come in from above (where the sensors
can't see you) and see if the downwash takes it out: if not, then donate
some half-inch Raufoss at 1,100 rounds a minute.
