Japan’s Minister of Defense Shinjirō Koizumi posed with a cardboard drone on Monday during a meeting with drone manufacturer AirKamuy. The AirKamuy 150 is a cheap pre-fab cardboard drone meant to die on the battlefield and it comes shipped in a flatpack like an IKEA shelf.

What is the difference between a “suicide drone” and a missile? Both are just guided to run into their target. It’s not like an ICBM wants to return home after dropping the payload.
