They should have run in different directions. At least one of them would have had a chance then
I'm surprised the drone didn't prioritize the vehicle
They had farmers on standby for vehicle recovery.
That explains why it buzzed them so many times. They wanted to separate them from the vehicle. Seems like maybe the best way to survive would've been to stay close to the vehicle and keep it between them and the drone.
Then of course they're distracted and easier targets for ground troops, but sometimes you are just fucked and shouldn't be invading.
