Help Us Decipher This Terrifying Video Of A Suicide Drone Flying Up An Armored Vehicle's Ramp (Updated)

Yeah it was road side IEDs, but drone attacks, which can be based on AI and mass, are a real future/current async warfare threat. SO cheap, launch a few hundred/thousand and enough will get through to cause damage
They could probably have a really simple cheap explosive too. Something like the yanks rigged up to drop from helicopters in Vietnam, a grenade in a mason jar. As soon as the jar hits the ground the jar breaks and the pin is pulled .
Ai guided anti drone drones are probably next , hopefully they have cameras so their dogfights can be uploaded to YouTube -

That's low level success rate. But drones firing shaped charges would be a nightmare. Cheap, almost undetectable.

Psychological effect would be huge though
