This confirms my description of the Ukraine-Russian war as “The First Drone War”.

Sure, drones have been used in warfare, arguably since WWII.

But the Ukraine-Russian war is the first war where Drones have become, perhaps, the most important type of weapon in the war.

From the article: "The sea drone was reported to be equipped with a R-73 air-to-air missile."

Maybe. More likely it was armed with a missile made by a U.S/British/German/French konglomerate.

Wondering if Putin has figured out yet that he’s actually fighting against NATO?

I'm absolutely sure 'Russia is reeling as £38m fighter jet gets shot down'. After all,
the US is also reeling as a $60 million fighter jet gets accidentally lost overboard.

Who writes these brain-dead tabloid headlines?

England shoots down another Ruzzian jet! A victory for NATO and the Labor Party Liberals. Keep poking the bear—they can’t fight back with NATO shield.

Not exactly what I consider a ‘drone’ but I suppose that depends on definition.

Generally, drone technology is a new problem...extremely versatile, hard to take out, relatively cheap, easy to make, and will be increasingly autonomous (vs. remote human control).

Congratulations… looks like Russia has been given yet another reason to take all Ukrainian territory that is adjacent to the Black Sea. Just sayin’.

And it’s still not our war.

"marcusclimaximus Humiliated As Attempt To Stiffen Flaccid Ukrainian Front Line In Pokrovsk Takes 3 Days, Ends In Failure!"

Even a helping hand from Express UK fiction writer John Varga failed, and rubbed marcus the wrong way, in the end.
