06.08.2025 18:16 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Quite, or that there are TTOs and countermeasures emerging all the time. Itβs like the designer of the panzerfaust announcing that their millions of tubes will defeat allied armoured formations as though the crews, commanders and planners donβt get a say.
06.08.2025 13:03 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Sure, but as you pointed out itβs performing the same role as conventional air power and artillery. Thatβs why I donβt buy this drones as a game changer idea, they are another tool and very useful but anyone who thinks they are an alternative to conventional forces is making a mistake.
06.08.2025 13:01 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0At which point conventional forces come in until the other side runs out (or you can destroy their capacity to build more). Ultimately itβs still a form of ablative armour surrounding g conventional forces.

We have a similar problem, I think the history of how we got here is pretty interesting but we should definitely spend more time studying the Argenta Gap than Rommel.
