...an area of the Arabian Peninsula sometimes mistaken for a country. It is populated by more antagonistic tribes and factions than you can keep track of...
i leaders of the Hurras al-Deen terrorist group in central Idlib on Monday.

According to reports, the vehicle was traveling though the al-Qusour neighborhood of Idlib, when it was struck by what is believed to be a ’Ninja’ drone.

The drone reportedly fired four missiles at the vehicle, destroying it completely and killing all of the people inside.

At least two foreign leaders, Sayyef al-Tunisi (Tunisian national) and Abu Hamza al-Yemeni (Yemeni national), were killed in the attack.

The U.S. Coalition has not commented on this latest attack, which is believed to have been carried out by their forces.

#5  I like the 4X Ninja switchblades.
One for the driver, one for the shotgun seat and two for the rear seats.
I would not want to trust a single Ninja switchblade to get all four occupants with a strike.
Is the R9X just a gravity bomb, IE no use of propellant?
I think even stand-off (glide) bombs don't necessarily need any propellant within the glide range (altitude times the glide ratio)?
At a thousand miles an hour the R9X obviously is not intended to be a glider.
