| Isis weaponised consumer drones Islamic death cult, the Islamic State, has been buying off the shelf drones and packing them with explosives. Kurdish forces fighting the Islamic State in northern Iraq last week shot down a small drone the size of a model airplane. Thinking it was an observation drone they took it to their base to have a look at it only to find it was rigged with explosives and blew up. According to the Pentagon, the Islamic State has tried to use small drones to launch attacks at least twice, prompting American commanders in Iraq to issue a warning to forces fighting the group to treat any type of small flying aircraft as a potential flying bomb. http://www.techeye.net/news/isis-wea...onsumer-drones |
