The Ukrainian situation is especially interesting because to my mind it is the first cellphone war. We've gone from cellphones being used as passive electronic switches (as in, detonation systems for roadside bombs) to it being the control interface for innovative weaponry and tactics such as drones against infantry. I dont know that irregular or inexperienced troops will ever give up this level of capability, and I'm not sure that wealthier militaries have figured out how to mutate consumer cellphones into equally powerful portable tools without essentially dumbing them down back to tetra radios.
