I never would just consider military RPAS. A wee while ago we were flying Op Missions on Shader during the time ISIS were using commercial drones for both recce and IDF. We quickly had to generate SOPs.

Additionally, the Taleban already has its own operationally effective drone unit.

It will be interesting to see how 216 will generate their TTPs.
