The Hellfire missile’s kill zone spans a 15-meter radius

Evidence

As a military play on words puts it, the drone makes it possible ā€œto put warheads on foreheads.ā€ It is estimated that the AGM-114 Hellfire fired by the Predator drone has a ā€œkill zoneā€ of 15 meters—which means that all those who happen to be within a radius of 15 meters around the point of impact, even if they are not the designated target, will die together with the target. As for the ā€œwound radius,ā€ that is estimated to be 20 meters. — Grégoire Chamayou, A Theory of the Drone, 470
