Our Drones need cigarette lighters.

[Smackdown2019]

Our drones need cigarette lighters and anti-flammable armor. That way the next time a Russian decides to drop their fuel. ... it will back fire on them.... literally

1. The pilots obviously had orders to bring it down

but make it look like it wasn't actually an act of aggression.

Hence the fuel dumps trying to choke the engine and causing it to flame out, and the 'OOPS, damaged the propellor moment' instead of a missile from a distance.

Plausible deniability and all that.

Pity there is video.

. . . there is always video . . .

A backwards firing flare at the right time during a fuel dump would do it nicely.

2. If they fish it out, wonder if they'll open the box labeled "PANDORA"

5. I'd settle for a glitter bomb. It would be confusing but spectacular!

6. If a glitter bomb disabled a Russian jet, that would be oh so glorious

7. Jet intake/ingestion danger is real.

A large amount of good sized confetti could actually be effective. I'd pay for that video.

8. A small cloud of abrasive could be fun

For a close following SU-27

9. Are you suggesting that you want to see sparks fly? I'm up for that.

10. They always seem to break just outside of the warranty

11. Snort! Bwaaaahahaha...

12. Smoking also kills--soldiers, tanks, jets
