> NATO doesn't know how to fight drones, or how to operate in a front line that's 20km deep and the enemy knows everything going in it Source: youtube I imagine. Speculation is fine but here you are making assertions without evidence. > The battlefield transparency that drones bring is a sea change in warfare And it began 20 years ago. > Could NATO take a million+ casualties This is a weird argument for the effectivness of your Russian drone infantry. > If that Russian drone infantry suddenly showed up on Estonia's borders They teleport now too? This is getting serious. I imagine within a week Putin would be meeting Gaddafi's fate. Attacking NATO is nothing like bullying a smaller country with no defense pacts. China and India would stop being patron states. You'd see a half dozen Prigozhins as the oligarchs would realize it's not survivable. > The Pentagon does not see drone warfare as a top priority. Anduril, GA, Boeing, and Lockmart absolutely inconsolable right now.

  > I hope NATO leadership isn't as blythe as you about the changing face of war. I am fairly confident they are not. And I'm not blythe about it, I just don't see Russia as being some sort of dominant drone army and believe the location that 20 km-wide no man's land is pretty strong evidence. And that there are many aspects of armed conflict we are not seeing in Ukraine. > WSJ (links an editorial)
