Should have replaced the Soviet-era desk chair. Damned Russian hackers........and all of a sudden, in Ukraine drone control central, the guy goes into an uncontrolled spin at his desk

FPV-equipped scale variants, certainly. This model below would look amazing in Ukrainian colours.

Given that this is not a suicide drone and cannot hover and drop grenades from directly above, what sort of armament would be possible? Could we build a scale P-39 around a single nose mounted for machine gun, like this one? By omitting the stock, etc. we should be able to get the gun without ammunition down to about 5 lbs. But can our FPV pilot aim the gun?
I saw that too. If you're going to go to the trouble of building a model P-39 there's really no excuse for sticking an air cooled engine in the nose.That's got the engine in the nose! What be this?!
Use it as a drone hunter. And yes, an RC aircraft can have an FPV setup, much like a flight SIM with cockpit view turned off (leaving just the gunsight reticle on screen).
And for the nose armament, why not a belt-fed 12 gauge shotgun with slug or sabot rounds?
