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.
Regularly? I can only recall two instances of such. Both involving UK citizens.

I wouldn’t put it past them.
America is rapidly turning into “The Hunger Games.” 😲
There have been more than that. Don’t you remember the Ukrainian president they poisoned that basically kicked off their whole designs on the Ukraine?
use fentanyl...
Actually, now that I think about it, the Ukrainian was a dioxin poisoning, which is almost as nasty as Polonium poisoning. But yeah, they use poisonings regularly, with dioxin and polonium being favorites perhaps because they don’t give a quick and painless death but a very nasty one.
If the clot shots don’t work fast enough...........
Those are pretty important key words.
Older movie, but if you've seen it, you'll recall why it was developed.
Okay, if you say so. I just don’t remember it. :0)
Regardless, these micro injector mites are no better and even if partially true have no legitimate purpose in our defense stature, IMO.
Fortunately, a countermeasure has been developed:
D efending against
E xobiotic
E xtralegal assassination
T error drones
That’s a big mosquito or a small finger.
That would do it.
Yup
LOL, I was just thinking the same.
Or spray aluminum Body coating.
If the concept is to inject uniformed enemy soldiers with poison during times of war, I would have to think this is a violation of the 1993 Chemical Weapons Convention and/or the 1972 Biological Weapons Convention, even though it's a delivery system not seriously anticipated at the time those agreements came into being.
Scary stuff that people have not only conceived and planned this sort of thing, but appear to be seeing it through actual completion.
