... When I read that title, I assumed he would fire the RPG at the drone. (Expensive overkill, but it would get the job done.) Not use it as a fucking club.

I was disappointed, too.

Einstein did once say: "I don't know what weapons WWIII will be fought with, but WWIV will be fought with sticks and stones."

I don't think he foresaw a Russian using an RPG tube as a stick to whack a drone, though.

What actually exploded here? Its not the RPG, because that would not go off from hitting the ground and the explosion happens long before it hits the ground or anything else.

I'm guessing it's the FPV drone. They're strapped with explosives.

My impression from watching a couple similar videos is that the Ukrainians will land drones outside the russian bunkers in order to force them to get out to get rid of them. Once an orc gets close, they remote-detonate the drone.

Apparently this is more efficient than trying to hit the bunkers. If you know they're in there, you can just keep the drone lying in wait. As long as the russians stay inside fearing the drone, they're effective put out of action, and once they try to leave you can send them home.
