so if you're the enemy and one of these things comes hurtling at you, you're supposed to sit there and let it transmit it's images (assuming it lands pointed in the right direction)? Sure. the enemy will destroy it before its' attendants can orient it correctly.

In addition to US security forces, the IDF and French and Singapore armies have bought the Eye Ball

Not to the Brits. I presume, like batons and leg cuffs, selling eyeballs is illegal in Great Britain.
