I've gotta object to this and deploy bird autism to defend the Bald Eagle's honor:
Average Bald Eagle wingspan/weight: 5 ft 11 in - 7 ft 7 in (1.8 - 2.3 m) / 6.6 - 13.9 lbs (3 - 6.3 kg)
Average Wedge-tailed Eagle wingspan/weight: 6 ft - 7 ft 7 in (1.82 - 2.3 m) / 6.6 - 12.8 lbs (3 - 5.8 kg)
So they are very similar in size, but both are generally beaten by the Philippine Eagle, Steller's Sea Eagle, and Harpy Eagle.

Also most birds can see UV, and none can see infrared that we know of. The Wedge-tailed Eagle does have one of the largest pecten oculi and some of the sharpest vision of any known bird, so maybe that's what it was referring to. And they are able to hunt adult kangaroos, so I will give you that. That is very impressive.

As for attacking things, many birds are known to attack drones and parachutes, from gulls, to hawks, to geese. Birds are tenacious fuckers. I've seen hummingbirds go after hawks and owls quite regularly.
