Terrorist UAV Bomber?

===================================

Global Guerrillas

A self-activated Jihadi from the Boston area was arrested. His plot: to blow up a section of the Pentagon with several UAVs (unmanned aerial vehicles) ladden with C-4. He bought the plane. He also bought C-4, AK-47s, and grenades from FBI agents posing as suppliers. Not much of a threat.

However, despite the fake plot and the terrible target selection, the technique is sound. Off the shelf or DIY UAVs, provide an amazingly effective way to do incredible amounts of damage. Within the context of an open source guerrilla war in a formerly developed country, this tech would get very deadly/effective, very quickly.
