So, I would be looking at cheap, hover bots with a hi-res camera and a shaped charge. It zips up to altitude, loiters for a while and then falls to rest on the engine deck or turret of a tank.
With technology the way it is an infantryman could carry one easily. If this happens, I have no idea what armor will do to react ... maybe a cloud of sticky threads in a defense grenades?
