well, apparently in 2026 americans are reverse-engineering and reproducing Iranian drones
anyway if you come into possession of american shahed bits please send some to me. i'm an equal opportunity reverse engineer
truh@whitequark have you seen the 3D printed diy MANPADS?
@truh the firmware is full of slop, so i'm not sure how much to trust the mechanical design (in which i'm far from an expert). could be good, could be very much not

My personal opinion and those of folks who know more than me seem to be that it's mostly a LARP build trying to get a job in the industry.
Few ESP32 cam's for targeting and then backhauling that info to the missile via 2.4GHz wifi.
The rocket motors also did not look very good and all launches and tests were cut VERY short to hide how bad it went.
But definitely a conversation starter.

Especially when one compares the amount of launch footage in something like this:

Slightly unfair comparison, as it's a team here.
