I'll never get tired of watching aerial drones blow up anti-air and anti-drone systems.
Side note, for the second there I thought the drone operator was dropping the charge on the vehicle driving on the road, leading it with the drop time, I was about to be hella impressed. I've seen them do it to runners, but vehicle speeds would be harder.
Got me thinking though: Why doesn't the drone calculate its own altitude and give that info to the operator on the HUD? That would be nice to know, for the operator. Any gps unit knows where it was launched from, and the elevation at that location can be looked up, and then can calculate how much it has ascended since then.
Operator with experience or even just good at mental math could then look at the altitude, and go "yea, that's like a 5 second drop time". This would improve accuracy.
Panishers take ALOT of training to do, but it carry quite high load on long distance, also with latest version they have been jam-proofed a bit.
