Intersting that it appears that there are two cameras - so there is either more than one UAV taking footage of this sluglord as he is nebulized, or one UAV and one manned platform? Maybe the money shot is taken minutes after the first pass as the UAV has circled back?

I wonder if there is a practice of multiple UAVs taking footage like that.

Wait a minute. Was the alleged perp read his Miranda rights? I thought American soldiers had to read battlefield combatants their rights before they killed them.

No, same UAS. The operator just came out a field of view just before impact in order to see full target effect. Yes to your follow on question concerning multiple UAS interface. Also, manned- unmanned platform teaming has been tested with success.
