I'm a bit skeptical that a quadrotor of that size could heft a 15 pound machinegun and any appreciable load of ammo - and the recoil would throw that thing all over the place - but this will be the future of warfare.
The service battle labs are all discussing robotics for future wars and this is the most mobile, fastest, and most versatile way of delivering maximum hurt with the least loss.

I doubt that mannequins are going to blow up when hit with machine gunfire.
But, as a concept, it’s probably doable and being worked on in the lab.
I can see this eventually able to supercede humans in many respects, like being able to be silent and shoot from higher up.
