Russia are using drones to hunt down individuals - not just military but civilians, for terror purposes.

They trails optic fibres up to 20km long so they can’t be jammed. Story above details how one was hunting a boy and his family, he managed to grab and break the fibre disabling the drone.

So they are absolutely suitable for assassinations, flying nap of the earth to the target.

Responding here to avoid furthering the hijack.

Yes, but those people are not the type of person who would have a security detail. That security detail would be more likely than the boy to be armed and be able to take out the drone from a distance. If nothing else, they’d probably be more prepared to break the fiber optic cable.
