The Iranians dropped hand grenades from hobby grade remote control planes in the 80s. This idea is definitely not new.
It just doesn’t work very well.
When a cooler conflict comes around, think whatever the 2020s, 2030s equivalent of the troubles is, drones will certainly rack up a much greater market share of the casualties by virtue of the lower background noise. They just aren't that useful in a "low but still tons of real armaments around for use" intensity conflict.
