The US military is developing micro drones, according to RT.com.
Drones come in all shapes and sizes. Some rain hellfire from the sky, others buzz around your ear, masquerading as mosquitos.
Back in 2007 the Telegraph reported the US had been accused of "secretly developing robotic insect spies." Government agencies admitted nothing at the time, but they're not gainsaying now.
Last year Zoologist Richard Bomphrey of Oxford University told the British Daily Mail about his research into how insect wings evolved over 350 million years.
“By learning those lessons, our findings will make it possible to aerodynamically engineer a new breed of surveillance vehicles that, because they are as small as insects and also fly like them, completely blend into their surroundings," he said.
When the Telegraph asked Tom Ehrhard, a retired Air Force colonel and expert on unmanned aerial craft, about the insect spies, he replied, "America can be pretty sneaky."
Yes, yes it is.
So sneaky that they've made a mosquito-size drone that injects poison into people, according to techblog.com.
Just when you thought insects couldn’t get any creepier, the US Air Force has unveiled tiny finger-sized insect spy drones that would be undetectable to most. The example above can be used to inject toxins into enemies during wars. Continue reading for two videos and more information.
Researchers have now developed bio-inspired drones with bug eyes, bat ears, bird wings, and even honeybee-like hairs to sense biological, chemical and nuclear weapons. And the U.S. isn’t the only country to have poured money into spy drone miniaturisation. France has developed flapping wing bio-inspired microdrones.

The Netherlands BioMAV (Biologically Inspired A.I. for Micro Aerial Vehicles) developed a Parrot AR Drone last year – which is now available in the U.S. as a ‘flying video game’.
Paging Jane Hawk...
Another way to kill us off, for political opposition or merely depopulation.
((((Ping))))
I used to be proud of such developments by our military. Now it’s just scary.
Bug zappers needed!
Just how different is this from those polonium cocktails that have been attributed to the Russians?
Easily adaptable to give you a covid shot without your permission.
But hey......I’m pretty paranoid.
That was My first thought what if bidet do get a hold of these things and turn them on Us.
It’s hard to keep up.
“Are Birds Actually Government-Issued Drones? So Says a New Conspiracy Theory Making Waves (and Money)”
They both will be used against political opponents.
Makes me wonder if they used that on Breitbart?
Which of us did not see this coming?
Russians just used to use umbrellas with poison on the tips, one “poke” and dead within two days.
This thread seems like a good place to remind everyone that Brian Sicknick, the firefighter “who was smashed in the head with a fire extinguisher” during the “insurrection”, and given an extremely rare burial in the Capitol, but who wasn’t smashed in the head with a fire extinguisher, had his death prematurely reported in the media, and his body was cremated. I wouldn’t put it past the authorities to have planted the stories, planned his death, and murdered him, to score points branding the event as a “violent onsurrection”. With just such technology, as an example.
You know that anything they develop for military purposes, they are considering to use against dissidents. Up to and including nuclear weapons. Right, Mr. Swalwell?
IMO, our own Federal deep state infrastructure is just as destructive and harmful to US Citizens (possibly more) than anything the Russians have done.
Well the difference is the Russians actually use those with regularity and we have yet to be accused of using this.
We are so screwed.
Key words: "accused" and "yet".
and one mosquito bite here is no different other than it was financed and controlled by our own.
