    That’s the most AI written article I think I’ve ever seen. Isn’t really a story here it’s just a fishing boat pulled a drone out of the water probably after it would “shot down”. But the AI goes on and on repeating the same basic point again and again without making any real headway.

    Real question. Is that a Shahed or made to look similar? Is this the setup for an October surprise? If so, frighteningly brilliant.

      Basically, yep. This drone is designed primairly as a target drone; since one of the things the US most wants to be shooting down is Shaheds, the form and capabilites are very similar for training use. (It’s supposedly a more advanced version, anticipating developments that Iran et. al. will likely (or have already) rolled out. Who knows how true that is, though.)
