With these specs, I wonder if some countries military wouldn't be willing to offer them more money than they could ever make with deliveries... (At least on a per-drone basis)

1.8kg isn't much of a payload, nor is a 5m diameter very accurate for military use.

Spend 5-10 minutes on twitter watching drone footage out of the Ukrainian war, both sides are getting a lot of work done with less accurate, smaller payloads.

The traditional M18A1 Claymore mine weighs about 1.6 kg total and has optimal effect to 50m in a 60 degree arc (potentially lethal to 250m I think - Ed: "moderately effective up to a range of 100m ... fragments can travel up to 250m").

1.8kg of high explosives and shrapnel. That's a total havoc in a 5m diameter.

And the safe zone does not start at 6m.

It's 2-5 hand grenades.
