1. That missile cost hundreds of times what the drone cost — the dynamics of this all are getting pretty tough unless super-wealthy!

2. An Ukrainian guy on Strela-10 said that destroying drones with Strela is a bitch

   Because apparently the missile expects the target to be much bigger. So it gets closer and closer and the target does not increase in size. So sometimes they don’t detonate and they miss

3. 100000 dollar missile to destroy a 400 dollar drone.
