Why donβt they put guns on the drone?
You've fired a gun, yes? They've got a lot of kick.
They've equipped Queen Hornets with AK-74s, but I've never seen anyone killed by them. They mainly seem to be used for psychological warfare and suppressive fire. Shotgun drones are more common, but they're used to shoot down Russian drones.

I've seen they have put grenade launchers on them.
Orks blown to smithereens.
This makes a lot more sense because grenade launches have way less kick!
