Iran I'm sure has already let Russia looked over the drone they captured. As I'm sure Kosovo let the russian looked over the stealth fighter they shot down. My next bet would be Russia using drones on Chechen rebels


They were actually already using drones on the protest crowds following elections over there(only surveillance though)
Their military drones are radically different than ours....

LOL I wonder what the US response would be when russia decides to shoot a missile from a drone to take out a rebel leader.

So I'm seeing.
1. Russia first to employ a missile drone like ours
2. Follow by China

Hey, Oklahoma became useful for someone.

How about that? Good on them.

This is one of those flyover states right?? that don't matter??

And tbh Jihadin, I'd go with China being seen doing it first.....
Russia second

China tends to be more assertive in the international field while Russia tend to smack on the regional peoples

Yes, but you'd have to go into... Oklahoma... to get there.

And who wants to do THAT?

Israel has been using missile drones to attack ground targets for a few years now.

Isreal hasn't made the news yet on it either. Nor is it consider a world player...region player yes...world player no. I say Russia first to use in taking out a Chechen leader. That'll make the news quick. China launching a drone missile at a rebel...wait...closest thing to rebels they have is Taiwan...which would be bad...since probaly the parts they use to build their drone was manufactured from Taiwan

Yes, assassinations have happened regardless of the country in charge, but not quite as obvious as in this case.
What if Germany were to use drones to destroy military barracks in Austria/France/Etc. citing that there was a terrorist representing grave threat to their nation??
While I like that these terrorists are being eliminated, it sets a very nasty international precedent that could easily spark a regional war

Also will the folks throwing the world Fascist around please stop and actually learn what it means

Derp its an act of war.
Austria declares war, maybe. The only war they had with Germany (back when it was just Prussia) was a crushing loss. Does Austria even have a military?
France, surrenders, of course.

Didn't the Palestinians try to use a "homemade" drone bomb on an Israeli ship during the last blockade of Gaza?

It was basically just an RC plane with a bomb strapped to it?
