I agree 100% that this cheap exploit should not even be in the game and it needs to be removed asap. It's just pathetic and it's already easy enough to destroy tank's and other vehicles.
It's absolutely not an exploit.
It's always been a staple of the Battlefield experience that players will mess around with the sandbox and use items in ways the developers likely didn't even think about. It seems that people are forgetting just how fragile tanks have always been in previous Battlefield games. If you were driving a tank, any tight corner, any building, any moving vehicle or parachuting solider was a potential death sentence. A drone covered in explosives isn't a 'cheap exploit,' it's just another hazard that tank drivers need to be aware of.
If I'm not wrong, today's update has made drones easier to see and increased the size of their hitbox a little bit, but let me just say that they were not difficult to dispatch in the first place. As a gunner on a tank, or even as the driver, landing two to three hits on it with an MG will delete the drone. Let's also not forget that the mug controlling the drone is also likely doing so from a little hidey-hole somewhere, meaning they aren't doing anything to contribute to the objective while they're harassing you.
Also, just so that someone doesn't decide that I'm only saying this because I want cheap kills - I don't use C5. I've equipped it in ONE game and have maybe 4 kills with it, from strapping a jeep full of it and going full send into the side of a hovercraft. I play on console, as Casper, with an ammo box, and spend all of my time sniping. If I can take a drone out of the air with a bolt action rifle, a gunner in a tank certainly can.
