In peace time maybe. In practice on the front expensive industrial drones like DJI Mavic 3 Thermal/Matrice lasts around a week when operating by Arty units and ~one day in infantry according to russian sources from half a year ago. Western militaries are still in the outdated mindset of treating drones as assets instead of consumables. Germany keeps sending >$xxxK observation platforms to Ukraine despite contacts communicating back survivability rates. That one fixed wing drone cost more than 20 Mavics or 50 domestic drones, and isnt better in any way.
