Colombian Blackhawk hit by FPV, 12 dead
A Colombian UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter was brought down by an FPV bomb drone while the aircraft was inserting counter narcotics commandos into an objective area. According to reports, at least 12 crew members and commandos were killed in the blast and following crash of the helicopter. The incident highlights the proliferation of drones in modern conflict and also emphasizes the change in dynamics wherein a couple hundred dollar drone can be the answer to an opposing force's aviation and greater firepower. The drone was reportedly piloted by remnants of the FARC guerrilla group.
