Looks fake ,  while some smaller race drones have something like 6:1 power-to-weight ratio is not fully available for forward flight , so even with those high preformance drones you are lookin at maybe 4-3:1 in forward flight .

I am somewhat surprised with folks going all in with quadcopters that are in many ways so inefficient, the power needed to sustain hover is many times more than what you would need for the winged drone hence winged drone could stay in the air much longer. I guess  DIJ being a turn-key product with simple controls and more packable outweighs everything else. But you can imagine how many drones are needed to keep one in the air at most times when the quadcopters can barely stay aloft 45min ,so take it as in praxis you get 30 minutes on station with some reserve  for cold weather and to make it back in the wind.

There have been a number of videos of drone dropped RPG warheads fitted with fins and and impact fuse, which seem quite effective.

But they are being dropped by much larger quad and octo copters.

Of course Shahid drone would literally need to fly within couple hundred meters for this setup to have even a minimal chance of shooting at it let alone hitting it after search light found the drone

Practicalities aside, as a flashlight nerd I dig the beamshot from that spotlight.

I wonder if it's LED, or HID?

Issues with buttstock cracking in the cold from firing under barrel grenade launcher

Hmmm, thats interesting because some of the other AK-12's I've seen had the 'AR-stye' buffer tube stock, which I had thought was selected because of its strength.

In fact the 12M1 is a quite reasonable upgrade the 2rd burst is redundant when your cyclic ROF is below 700 rpm the new diopter is 3-position (200-400-600) the new fixed flash hider/comp is designed so the suppressor can be mounted right onto it, without the need to detach anything

Those do sound like reasonable upgrades.

With the flash hider, is it welded/rivitted to the barrel? Or just secured with a rockset/locktite like compound? 

The advantage with being removable would seem to be the ability to use cheap/DIY suppressors, such as some of the 'solvent trap' types from Aliexpress, or the scratch built ones we've seen on AK74's in Ukraine.

I think the flash hider is screwed on and then pinned to the barrel

as for suppressors, there are at least three major private makers here in Russia and probably close to a dozen of smaller ones, that produce anything from cheap steel cans worth about 200 Euro and up to the high end, 3D-printed designs made of stainless steel or titanium that worth close to a thousand of Euros.

I have a Holosun 512 on one of my AUG's, so this was pretty cool for me to see the 512 out in the wild.

Another 512c + 3x from earlier in the war:

Somewhat crude JDAMSKI  GPS guided extended range glide kit for cast iron. Will be refined once its proven to work.

Given the previous projects were very refined in comparison, one has to wonder who the developer of the 'erzatz' kit is , i would think it not one of the main buros.

rocked boosted extended range Grom glide bomb

Something i haven't seen before grenade dropping drones doing CAS for troops asaulting the trenches , typicaly most of the drone footage is akin to WW2 night withches , harrasing fires not real CAS

In this case RED , Donbas militia troops assaulting a Ukrainian trench and drones literally flushing out the opposing force.
