Thats possible. Although we've seen a ton of very effective quadcopter dropped 30mm VOGs, and the 300 has an equal or better payload then that. So theres clearly a high level of utility for anti personel drones like the quadcopters; I've largely stopped sharing them in this thread because they're pretty grisly. 

I've read that either the US or Aeroviorenment (the manufacturer) doesn't want video shared of the 300, which is why its more scarce. Whether thats true or not I'm not sure, but its plausible as the 300 videos we have seen have a distinct 'slaughter bot' killer robot vibe as the round closes with an individual man.

(skip the sound on this video, awful soundtrack)

But the conclusion of these videos tends to be a man running for their life as a murderous sky robot descends on them like a hawk on a woodland mouse - perhaps not the best marketing material for the company to have out in public.

Seriously doubt Ukrainians give a flying fuck about what Aeroviroment says or thinks about the videos, gore vids are literally the main propaganda tool they have. 

Still i consider Switchblade 300 a waste of resources, it packs a very small warhead that is in addition designed so that shrapnel is forward focused to minimize collateral, so if its not a direct hit its likely no hit at all. Also if you note all the kamikaze drones are noisy so you often see targets react in time to approaching drones. DIJ quadcopters on the other hand are reusable intelligence gathering platforms with rudimentary bomblet dropping capability and when moving slowly quite silent.

Forward firing is what you want for an airburst round.

The Polish Warmate, and at least one of the Russian Suas is also forward firing, just with a larger warhead. 

I guess Ukraine felt the need to defend the 300; this video came out a few hours after our discussion:

I recently read an article which claimed that if no more mines were placed in the Ukraine, and the current demining programme continued at the present rate, it would take approx 1,000 years to clear them all up.
