These things are useful vs jihadis and the like, but they are of limited value against people with a real air defense system.

Sure. Helicopters are another example of that. They are fantastic if you control the air.

If you don’t, they are deathtraps.

There are lots of valid examples. It began in WWII. If you don’t control the air, you don’t control the battlefield. Simple as that.
