I agree that the Dalek and the Drone are disturbingly similar (though I'd draw the line of "armed travel machine" back much further - the attack helicopter is a clearer example, as the first helicopter gunship was in face a transport helicopter [a 'slick'] with a bundle of rocket pods welded to the front, and the 'Spooky' C130 Gunship, game-famous from the Death From Above level of Call Of Duty 4, was originally a heavy transport aircraft, with howitzers mounted on one side), I would question that the issue with Heidegger's statement is purely that he seems to be conflating Jews and chickens.
