  1. I wonder if they could produce a far cheaper version of the AIm-9 or Iris-T to just kill those easy targets.

  2. That is actually nice but very expensive. I hope they get more ways to counter those drones.

  4. That missile cost 1000x what the Shahed cost to build. That’s why they need more strategic weapons to destroy the Shahed production supply chain.

  6. How easy is it to shoot down a Shahed with the onboard cannon of the F16 ?

  7. I assume it was already out of cannon ammo, I would think guns blazing would always be the first choice counter?

  8. I’m suspecting the A29 Super Tucano is going to have a new critical role in symmetrical warfare that’s more than pilot training.
