What do the statistics show? Has there ever been anything more than a few dings? Yes we know there is more damage from military planes hitting drones. But those drones weighed 100's of pounds. Strikes with smaller drones of common size has only resulted in a few dings.

Drones are the modern scape goat. Kinda like witch's in the 15th century.
