That’s like saying after the Pearl Harbor attack that US bases could be destroyed by sneak attacks.

Nope. They had their fun, and then they lost. I think the same thing will happen with this one. For starters, the US military is not quite as incompetent as the Russian one.

The new “drone killer app” now being used on M4’s could very well be added to CWIS platforms. With its AI capabilities, a single CWIS can destroy an entire drone swarm in under a minute.

Of course, people almost always believe their own country is the better one. OTOH, the Russians haven't dumped any of their aircraft into the sea lately.

It is magical thinking to imagine that US airfields are not vulnerable to drones, or that US ships are not vulnerable to the same threats as Russian ones. And the US is far more dependent on its ships (and aircraft) for geopolitical power than Russia is, so the risks to the imperial Washington hegemony are far more serious.

For all the mockery of the Russian military the last few years by the losing side, it remains the losing side in its proxy war with Russia, despite spending far more money in Ukraine than the Russians have. At current rates US/NATO governments will collapse financially due to accumulating debt long before Russia does. That won't help with the western reliance on high-priced cutting edge military systems.
