    Trump and other dictators are vain (uh, reviving an outdated class of naval ship and naming it after yourself sound familiar?) so they'll prefer bombers, tanks, and rockets over some little robots with little propellers. They disdain things that look weak regardless of their usefulness.

    Pitch that to Trump and his team and see if they will run their next kidnapping op by propeller drone only.

    Well, current electric helicopters don't have a long range. But that's a 2026 problem, when battery tech improves they can be made just as good. Actually, better, since electric helicopters are quieter
