Ukraine using "dragon drones" with molten metal on battlefield

"The Ukrainian military is using "dragon drones" that employ molten metal as payload against the Russians on the battlefield, CNN reports.....Ukraine appears to be using a fleet of fire-spewing "dragon drones" in the war against Russian invaders – a modern version of the munitions that had a terrible effect in both world wars. The white-hot mixture of aluminium powder and iron oxide, called thermite, burns at temperatures of up to 2200 degrees Celsius. Falling from a drone, thermite resembles fire coming out of the mouth of a mythical dragon, which is how the drones got their name." Pravada
