While most anons are being /pol/tards, I'm gonna take this opportunity to review this thing.
Yes, I am phone posting, so forgive the color coded edited image.
Red: It makes sense to me to have properly designed support for takeoff instead of hand deployment which is commonly used now. Inherently safer when teaching 19 year olds to use a literal flying hand grenade.
Yellow: Pretty neat arming mechanism, I guess what they're going for is user/field safety on this one. Even if it inadvertently drops, if the pin isn't pulled you're golden. Makes sense for a western developed piece of equipment, also probably easily reloadable with a simple manual and typically issued NATO standard grenades.
Green: While drones used in the Ukraine conflict are usually designed to accommodate a wide variety of ordinance with many different deployment methods. Seems like they opted for a rail mount on the drone to allow the use of different ordinance deployment mechanisms. Muh modular systems
Blue: Obligatory obvious mention of the commercially available drone.
Overall, not a terrible design desu. Could probably trim a lot of the fat.
