A lot of the Russian tanks are already fitted with anti-drone kit...probably Ukrainian ones too...but yea...it's a drone anti-drone arms race atm.
That won't be resolved any time soon...and meantime doesn't favour the expensive boutique western "designer" approach over the churn them out cheap as chips Russian model.
It's like the shells...at 3-5 thousand dollars a hit the NATO ones are doubtless precision engineered to a higher standard than the Russian ones at 300 dollars a pop, but what does that matter when you are shoving them into old worn out barrels?
-About ziltch. Effectively the Russians can achieve a near weapons parity with the US for about a tenth of the price...and as this war is on their patch they can also repair refit & upgrade with relative ease.
The US can't "spend to win" here. Probably why they have handed the whole thing over to the stupid Europeans and Brits who will of course wreck their economies trying.
