Their is a lot of hysteria about drones on ch 7 there was a program The battle for Mosul where they claimed quads were dropping bombs on people. The producers clearly had no idea about the the subject they showed a dji phantom with a 'steel bomb it could never lift. Not to mention how difficult it would be to know when you are over the target.

Tech while I totally agree that bomb weight would be limited and to carry anything bigger than a hand grenade would require a hefty multicopter I think you underestimate the capabilities of them.

Knowing when you are over the target is so easy and very accurate with live video to an iPad that would make it impossible to miss. I don't know what your average hand grenade weighs but I would say a medium size quadcopter could carry one with ease and I have no doubt that they could deliver within a metre or two which would still be plenty close enough to cause big problems.
