The drone problem just indicates that ground forces were foolish to depend on air forces to protect them...embedded anti-air is essential!

Air Forces have sold ground forces a lie. Unfortunately ground forces ate up that lie like a kid chomping on candy on Halloween.

Why?  I don't know.

But the reality is that the drone threat is simply anti-tank missiles taken vertically.  Its a furtherance of the anti-tank helicopter.  Same issue just smaller and a bit more difficult to detect.

Additionally anti-air has been allowed to stagnate since a bit after WW2 and ground forces are playing catch up.

The supremacy of these cheap drones will have a shelf life of less than 10 years.  I hope leadership is planning accordingly...both to solve the issue of them and to move on to the next "hot" thing once this issue is cracked.
