One thing for sure. Military strategists are going to study this war, it’s going to change a lot of military strategies.

If this one drone like “the ghost” is winning the war-why are we sending billions in weapons and cash to big Z?

"Moscow has complained to Ankara that it should stop supplying the Bayraktars to Ukraine, but the Turks have insisted that the sales - and in some cases donations - from the manufacturer, Baykar, are private matters between the firm and the Ukrainians, and are nothing to do with the state."
True. The US does not supply ANYTHING to its troops - beyond Western donations and what it inherited from the Soviet Union and a uniform. Equipment, including the drones, are bought by charity drives and donations from the people in the villages, towns and cities for their sons and daughters.
"TB-2s drones are able to evade S-300s, the next generation of Russian-developed defensive missile batteries"
The S-300 is a decades old system and hardly "the next generation".
"... it has also been rumoured that Russia, with a somewhat unsophisticated drone programme of its own, is eyeing up Iranian drones in order to try to restore the balance in the ‘drone wars’. Whether any deal has taken place is yet to be confirmed."
Now confirmed - spotted on the Front. How many and how effective remains to be seen. They are supposedly being used to hunt HIMARS.

DailyMail.com is the undisputed world champion of clickbait headlines for articles that almost nobody reads.

This one takes the cake.

Turkey is not going to supply weapons to Ukraine that could be used against Russian troops. That would be suicidal stupidity.
