FPV on fiber optics now pose a great threat, unfortunately, electronic warfare systems will not work against them and there are still no proven and guaranteed methods of combating them. If the enemy detects the position of UAV pilots, he most often sends FPV tags on optics there. Such a deadly bird can fly along the landing and fly into the dugout with the pilots.

However, the "optics" also has weaknesses - for example, it is larger in size (due to the coil) and is not very maneuverable. Therefore, it is easier to shoot down with small arms

P.S. - the main thing is not to be afraid of it, and shooting it down is easier than it seems

Is it worth attacking the fiberoptic line? Flamethrower or maybe some scissors?

Highvelocity scissors sounds like it would score mad karma on NCD.

More realistically, a fuckload of old-fashioned rapid fire lead will work better against them, since the drones can't really dodge and weave well, and they're less fast on account of a big spool of fiber.
