Unmaned drone policeman.

A damn site cheaper than a helicopter. If it helps catch more scrotes, I'm all in favour  ;)

Would be nice to have something similar in 28mm, although i haven't actually looked to see if anyone makes them  :?

There are some drones on the RAFM site:

There's also an armed variant.
Maybe you can make use of that...

Just what I thought when I saw it. It certainly does have a Terminator feel to it.
This is the one I like best:




The spidery-looking drones are also very tempting. This range could be very useful indeed - thanks for the URL  :D

According to Radio 4, Merseyside Police may be prosecuted for contravening some Civil Aviation regulations..!

The irony.
