Suicide drones make much more sense than this stuff for large munitions. All those engines and batteries for a platform that’s very likely going to be destroyed anyway. Those cardboard, rubber band catapult launched planes are much cheaper.
Is the purpose of this device to remotely mine areas where enemies currently aren’t, or to attempt to drop mines directly on enemies? The former task seems suited to a reusable drone.

If a $2k drone takes out a tank and crew that can’t be easily replaced, that’s still good bang for buck.
I see what your did there.

Considering the ending shows them putting a grenade fuse in the side of it. I’m gonna say this is for a direct attack role and not remote mining.
This thing drops the mine, and arms it as it is released. It’s not meant to hang around and get blown up.
