Shryke armed RQ 21 Blackjack - new combo tested by #usmilitary !

Though deployed in various conflicts in recent years, notably in Nagorno-Karabakh (2020) and Syria (since 2011), drones have taken on a new dimension since the war in Ukraine was initiated by Russia on February 24, 2022. 
The use of drones in Ukraine represents a step change. Never before have so many drones been used in a military confrontation. 

These range from the very small – such as the Black Hornet which has a wingspan of only 12 cm – to pretty large ones like Bayraktar TB2 with wingspans of about 12 meters. 
The US military is working not only to deploy new drones but also to arm existing ones.
Boeing Insitu Integrator drone, also known as the RQ-21 Blackjack, which has traditionally been used for Intelligence, Reconnaissance, and Surveillance (ISR) roles, has been validated to drop small precision-guided Shryke munitions on designated targets. 

In this video, Defense Updates analyzes how Shryke armed RQ-21 Blackjack could be a potent addition to the US arsenal?
