As a former US Army SHORAD officer: this is not a MANPAD, this is a trauma monkey …

NEWS FLASH: there’s more that goes into a MANPAD than propulsion and navigation. I have no idea if this kid’s project was tested against aircraft that can deploy decoys and fight back, but it probably wasn’t. This is a TRAUMA MONKEY … a limited hangout to lead you to believe that some kid can build it. Hey, can the kid fabricate CPUs and memory and micro electronics? Advanced hi-explosive? Computer modeling for projectile dispersion? I can keep going.
