Does our military have any weapons or ammo left in case China would start something? It seems we are packing it all off to Ukraine. And I’m guessing Ukraine is not paying for any of this stuff, so we won’t be able to afford to replace it.

Lastly, where do I get one of those? It would be great for rush hour.

What is the missile? If it's a Stinger, there just aren't enough of those and their production was discontinued years ago. Plus the main issue with using missiles against drones is that they cost too much compared to the smaller drones. It's like burning your money to protect it from thieves.

There simply isn't any defense against smaller drones except masers, and with those the problem is search and targeting, as use of radar for purposes those makes the emitter a target for artillery strikes. The emitter vehicle and the maser vehicle have to shoot & scoot fast.

Pretty cool!

...say, would those rockets work against Biden’s DOJ’s F-15s?

Another wonder weapon after the vaunted Javelins, HIMARs, etc., etc., etc. that will change and win the war for Ukraine.

Not.
