Forgetting the hype for a minute, it is evident that Ukraine has been incredibly successful in destroying both Russian infrastructure, and several of its bomber fleet aircraft. According to defence sources, the Ukrainians were able to place several drone launching platforms, and modified trucks, that were able to send swarms of drones over Russian airfields hundreds of miles from the Ukrainian border. According to the Ukrainians, more than 40 aircraft were destroyed 2/3 of which were bombers, which is a huge problem for Russia.
It means, the Ukraine has taken inexpensive drone launch Platforms and use them hundreds of miles for the border, destroying irreplaceable military assets.
what no defence chief will say now, is that the battlefield of the 21st-century share the same characteristic as a battlefield of the early 20th century. When the horse drawn Cannon, and the horseback cavalry, were replaced by truck pulled artillery, and tanks. The tool of the 21st century, to engage in modern warfare, are not the same tools that were used in the 20th century. Not only that, but war has democratized. The truth is not that the ho would be successful, it was that they could damage the international order until the players would come to the table and resolve the issue. Granted most of the issues were with Iran, but they were real domestic issues that are now addressed.

it’s almost impossible to quantify the impact. The war in Ukraine is having on the globes, arms business. If a simple pick up truck can carry 50 drones, that are launch remotely, I can attack to almost anywhere on your territory. In a way that will destroy your ancient war equipment, you’re already out of the fight.
Ukrainians have been using fibre optic attached drone for the past 18 months with incredible success. 5 km of optic fibre can easily be carried by a drone. And the signal cannot be interfered with. This reality, means that Ukrainian drones can Lawyer over battlefields until they identify weak points and attack ground troops with almost no loss of life on their part.
