Presidente Zelenskyj: i partner mediorientali dovranno affrontare una carenza di difesa aerea. Stanno usando la difesa aerea contro gli Shahed. Ci sono molti più droni che missili.

This is what happens when you pretend for four years the war in Ukraine isn’t really happening or is not all that bad. Humans really learn only when they feel it on their own skin.

Ukraine’s resilience never ceases to amaze me. Even while facing daily bombardments, they are looking for ways to help their partners and share what they’ve learned. Zelenskyy is right that experience is irreplaceable

What a lot of people don’t understand is a lot of the big state built drones are dangerous, but it was a bunch of cheap drones from Amazon that started the drone war.

At the beginning it was a cheap drone with a grenade attached that helped stop the Russians.

We also know that Iranians have been cycling through the Russian drone units learning and practicing.

So what happens when Iran and their non-state actors get it together?

It gets really expensive really quick to shoot down $20,000 Shaheds with $3,000,000 Patriot missiles.

He seems so tired 🙁

This has been very true in Ukraine, however Iran is much, much smaller than russia, so the US can blow up the shahed factories/storage, which Ukraine has struggled with without tomahawks, taurus etc (Flamingo is very recent). Considering the US took a month+ to get their aircraft carriers, planes in position they know and are capable of bombing the shaheds at the source, so their numbers will be far, far smaller than russia has launched.
