FYI 'swarms' is a magic word.
It's meaningless and is introduced to conflate the fact what is talked about is not currently possible or stupid. These words are used a lot in tech.
> using autonomous drone swarms against a soft target like a stadium full of people
This can be done with a signal crop dusting drone, but if you say that it's easier to understand it's just the Black Sunday movie - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0075765/ or a normal crop dusting plane or one automatic weapon where every bullet is a mini suicide drone.
"six drones engaged in complex maneuvers in low visibility conditions, buzzing the destroyer" is not possible. If it was 'one' drone it's obvious there's no way it can get to that location.
It is true Slaughterbots has scared the unwashed masses. Currently a glass window stops a drone, they are currently not far off the Dalek's inability to go up stairs.
Is it good to keep the public scared about drones? Drones greatest ability in war and terrorism atm is the fear. (Excluding multi-million $ plane sized drones which are strategic)
