Yeah, you can be the first out of the plane, or is that "we" working really hard there?

  Would writing a check to Ukraine for military drone hardware count [1] [2]? I feel like jumping out of a plane is a very simple, inefficient idea of a path to success here, especially considering what qualifies as force projection today. Not asking for anyone's boots on the ground if that was what your question referred to. Also not an armchair warmonger, just exhausting watching the unnecessary suffering continue [3] [4] due to an aging megalomaniac.
