I'm skeptical of how much damage drone-based munitions would do to these planes. A bit of frag shrapnel doesn't "total" them.

It was a pretty obvious move and on the 3rd year of ongoing war they got so careless they just exposed 30% of their strategic bombers fully loaded, standing still in the open and visible on every sat imagery for the sake of showing off.
