stupid talk, kamikaze drone doesn't move fast except when diving into a target. a 63mph cruising time of kamikaze drone is not an high speed . ode, go and get your self educated you don't know anything arms and drones.
the Iranian kamikaze drone has a maximum speed of 200km/h

I know. I'm just even trying to assume that was the case with his logic which isn't even remotely possible. Even during exhibitions sef, they can't be flown side by side cos you can't really have them all take off from the runway at the exact time and speed.
A drone doesn't need a runway to take off though. I believe the Iranian drone launcher can launch multiple drones at once. See pics below

shut up, is the drones not carrying an explosive material. go and find out how explosive material detonates. so far the 4 drones are flying closer to each other one impact will affect the other. the drones is likely a suicide drones.
It does appear the Iranian drones can be used in swarming mode as seen below:

It depends on the kind of drone. The Turkish bayraktar TB2 launches from a runway. Same with some of the Russian orlan drones. Copter drones and DJi commercial drones improvised and strapped with explosives do not need to launch from a runway. However, the contention is that they cannot be flying together in parallel lines at the same time cos of the risk of collision and signal interference.

They can be used in swarming modes doesn't mean they are all flying side by side together.

The picture above shows them flying in very close proximity which can make them vulnerable still.

The drone in question here is the Iranian drone which does not need a run way. I was just correcting that point you made.

The main argument started with him claiming 2 missiles destroyed four drones at once and when we tried to explain to him that it was possible, he said they were flying together in parallel lines and I said it's not possible to fly four of those drones in parallel lines cos of the risk of collision and signal interference and he said when one drone exploded, it went to hit another one to detonate it, which is pure bullshit. Even when they are used as swarming drones, it's not possible to hit more than one drone with one missile as the others aren't in static mode. We've seen several videos of AD missiles hitting drones in this conflict and no missile has ever knocked out 2 drones together in one hit.

Destroyed Iranian drones right?

Not Turkish drones that take off from a run way.

Ps:

Also the Iranian drones can be remote controlled. Human factor is significant in such cases.

Also we do not know if 4 were flying in parallel, or whether 2 or 4 were flying parallel in a stacked formation, or even whether they were in groups of 2 at different locations.

We did not see the video just as we don't see the video of every combat in the ongoing war or military operation or whatever name we call it; hence, we can't tell what really happened. A "news" was reported. It's left for us to believe or not believe. Both sides Russia and Ukraine have not been 100% truthful with the news they report.

Got to go now. Abit busy.

Interesting report

According to persistent information that is now being circulated in Russia, in the coming days Russia is expected to impose a partial military regime in the country, in favor of the war effort and the need to speed up the recruitment of reserve personnel. The assumption is, according to law enforcement sources, that a partial and limited military regime will be imposed in Russia in the coming days, and it will be focused on the border areas.

In other words, the intention is to prevent men of conscription age, and of course those who have already received conscription orders and are trying to escape, from leaving Russia. In just the last three days, tens of thousands of men of draft age left Russia on flights and through ground border crossings

The Russians apparently used chemical weapons in the Kherson area.

This is chloropicrin, which was used as a combat poison in the First World War.

According to OC "South", barrels with toxic material were dropped on the fighting positions of the armed forces.
According to some indications, it was a K-51 chloropicin grenade. There are no reports of casualties.

A referendum is being held in Zaporizhzhia to separate from Ukraine and join Russia. The Russian news agency Tass reports that there is a German observer there whose job it is to make sure that the residents vote of their own free will and without pressure.

ok but missiles are usually equipped with impact fuse, they detonate ones there is contact with their terget, or when there is impact on a hard object
lmao most missiles has more than one way of detonating go and check YouTube, even common rpg has the technology to determine how it's explodes wether on impact or when near or through a delayed timer, missile can even use kinetic energy as a kill force this is not 1970 anymore
