  That they import
context: Russia makes the bet that Iran can produce drones faster than NATO can produce anti-air missiles. >
  
  Honestly I think they’ll be able to do it cheaper with high volume computer assisted machine gun fire or computer guided anti drone electronic warfare weapons. 
  Missiles are expensive but a tracked weapon that either doesn’t need reloading or costs a fraction of a missile is coming. >
  
  Drones are probably just set to fly to a given gps location and then crash there. So fairly resistent to any countermeasure unless it involves messing with GPA signal. >
  
  would it be though? if the drones goes in a straight predictable line then a computer could easily track it and shoot it down no? (disclaimer I know jack shit about this stuff) >
  
  It's not straight line. They can programm them to any route. E.g. fly 5 meter turn left fly 10 meter turn right. It's just that all of this done on ground before launching >
  
  The Iranian drones are planes, not helicopters so they have to fly fairly straight. >
  
  Um? So you saying drones can't change direction? Yes they can. >
  
  Lol, yes of course they can change direction, but an aeroplane drone turns slowly. Ever seen a plane, turn a perfect 90 degrees in the air? >
  
  Ok, 5-10meters was example that they just can change direction not literal value, no idea what their actual turn radius, just know that they change direction multiple times during fly to target >
  
  Ok, fair enough, I was just letting you know in case you thought these were helicopter drones. >
  
  The Nazis tried that in London during WW2. It didn't work then and I hope that it fails again. >
  
  It will fail, attempting to beat a population into submission never works. They just become more resilient, vengeful, resourceful people.
  Ukraine will win this war, my only fear is that it may take years. The sooner somebody takes care of Putin, the sooner the war will end. Putin is reliant on victory in Ukraine to ensure his continued domestic dictatorship. >
  
  Yep, you either annihilate thoroughly, destroying everything, or you leave them alone.
  Walking anywhere in the middle just doesn't work. >
  
  The takeaway:  Russia's supposedly formidable army has been reduced to cheap drones.
