We need an easy way to distinguish the different types of "drone" in news stories.
- Hobby style Quadcopter used for surveillance
- Commercial Hexcopters normally used as heavy duty camera platforms, now with ability to drop tank busting bombs
- Modified, autonomous, powered gliders with a small explosive. Hand launched.
- Mid sized, UAVs with a large explosive. Vehicle launched.
- Loitering munitions like the Turkish drones used by Russia
- Full on UAV missile platforms as used by the USA
