New Words 14

Came across some more "new" words & phrases.

This is set #14 of these that I've posted here on MattChat.

As with previous posts, these are not necessarily "brand new"...... just new to me:  words that I've come across recently which I do not recall hearing before.

kamikaze drone -- an aerial weapon system category in which the munition loiters (waits passively) around the target area for some time and attacks only once a target is located
