Ukraine's latest potent weapon is a homegrown drone that, when it’s not carrying hundreds of pounds of high explosive, has room for two adults and their baggage.
It’s made by Ukraine-based Aeroprakt Aircraft.
The “mass drone attack” conducted against three air bases hundreds of miles inside Russia

Geograph
Exact's Geograph Seal, released for the Sharp X68000 computer in 1994, is a precursor to Jumping Flash! Rendered in 3D polygons, it was the earliest first-person shooter with platforming mechanics. It also allowed the player to aim the weapon, and took place in free-roaming outdoor environments rather than the corridor labyrinths of contemporary FPS games like Doom.
Jesus fucking fuck, this incident is even worse than the headline suggests. A cop heard an acorn hitting his cruiser's roof, assumed he'd been shot, and immediately opened fire on his own car -- which had a detainee in the back seat. A sergeant, hearing the first cop's screams and gunfire, *also* dumped a mag into the car.
Thankfully it appears neither cop can shoot for shit, so the guy inside the car wasn't hit.
