it probably helped a lot that it was flying at an altitude of like... 5 to 10 meters

[-] nat_turner_overdrive@hexbear.net 30 points 4 months ago

that's true

I wonder where it was launched from

[-] emizeko@hexbear.net 32 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

speculative from an IbnRiad retweet, but makes ~~the most~~ some sense

[-] nat_turner_overdrive@hexbear.net 23 points 4 months ago

big if true, I was thinking it might have been launched in the med or off the coast of the med

[-] emizeko@hexbear.net 21 points 4 months ago

yeah after more reflection that drone made a big boom and is small enough that how much fuel or battery could it really carry? maybe it was launched from a speedboat in the med

[-] nat_turner_overdrive@hexbear.net 16 points 4 months ago

I imagine detection would be a lot harder if it were launched closer as well, wonder if the yemenis will spill the details eventually

[-] da_gay_pussy_eatah@hexbear.net 8 points 4 months ago

Those drones have reported ranges of 1500-1800km, so 2000 isn't so unbelievable.

Didn't a couple of them (yemenis) allegedly break into Gaza

[-] sexywheat@hexbear.net 7 points 4 months ago

They released a video of them training to enter Gaza, but I never heard of them actually entering (yet)

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
