Reminds me of that scifi vid "Slaughterbots". And also Black Mirror "Hated in the Nation" with the autonomous bee-sized drones and "Metalhead" with the killer drone dog. Oh and of course Angel Has Fallen with Gerard Butler.

I'm sure this sort of autonomous drone tech will be a very real thing by the end of this decade. Focus then will be on jammers/ewar/kinetic counters.
