I don't recall seeing this in the news, so here you go:

Russia's got a flying, assault rifle drone, which is even capable of taking off vertically.

Now, we have a flying assault rifle drone gap.

The VTOL capability is astounding!
It also looks like it wouldn't be too hard to shoot yourself in practice…

One 30 round magazine? Not a lot of use. But maybe if they field hundreds of them?

I'm sure the ammo capacity can easily be upgraded if/when they field more powerful lift motors.

Imagine one of those gatling guns strapped to a drone, like from the movie Predator, or the ones helo doorgunners use.

So, not an AK-47 assault rifle but a Vepr-12 semi-auto shotgun with a 10 round magazine (says this early in the linked article) for shooting down other drones.
