Yes, some Ukranian drones have fiber optic cables that are 20 km long.
Interesting. Google says: Lightweight drone tether has a weight of 0.6g/m including kevlar member.
Bare cable weighs a lot less, about the weight of thin fishing line.
Damn, if you watch the full video, some guy gets a drone right in the ass.
E: goddamn, this video is gnarly. Drone turns an invader on a motorcycle into the ghost rider, flames and all.
