One of the most beloved machine guns of all time is finding new life in the fields of Ukraine. As it turns out, it is a useful, low-cost alternative when shooting down drones.
Imagine that, a partial belt of .50 cal is cheaper than using a missile. Who'd a thunk it?

A partial belt of 5.56 would be cheaper still, and likely able to disrupt the drone also.
One wonders what happens when stray bullets return to earth somewhere. This isn't a .22 rimfire - a.50 will lay down some hurt !
By the way, meaning NO disrespect for Mr. Browning's magnificent creation, just observing that it's more than necessary in this application.
