China Uses Flamethrower Drones to Combat Wasp Nests
|Here is the future of warfare:
A drone has been converted into a flying flamethrower in central China in a fiery campaign to eradicate more than 100 wasp nests.
Blue Sky Rescue, a volunteer group that conducts search and rescue and other emergency work, have teamed up with villagers in Zhong county near the city of Chongqing.
They raised 80,000 yuan ($12,200) to buy a drone and equip it with a gasoline tank and an arm-length nozzle.
Videos released by Blue Sky show a recent mission by the six-arm drone. It hovers above a hive as large as a suitcase before swooping down. The drone operator flips the ignition switch, and the drone spits bursts of fire onto the hive.

South Korea already has drones mounted with automatic rifles that track down enemy soldiers wherever they are hiding. It’s a fire and forget drones. The future wars will be fought with unmanned drones.
