    That’s not where they’re hiding. The drones are on the ceiling blades.

    edit: FAN blades…

    Ukraine doing this with minimal us help is kind of awesome tbh. They keep holding Russia at bay while hopefully Germany and England get their MIC ramped up

    If our chickenshit media had a spine they’d focus on how we need to learn and adapt to drone warfare and Ukraine dudes should be the best teachers in the world. I can assure you useless pieces of shit like Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson won’t give a fuck.

    Does this shit not terrify everyone? It’s literally that easy and cheap to do this much damage from hundreds / thousands of miles away. Why would there be any more mass shooters if all they need is a drone and an rpg…

    Do we think the first domestic drone attack will be random (terrorism) or targeted? Or from law enforcement?

    as someone who has done a lot of travel to a lot of different places the last 4 months, a frequenter and a Tyler Rogoway reader, yeah thinking I could get taken out by a drone while landing or taking off frequently went through my mind. Flight attendants got tired of me asking for whiskey at take off

    I’ve heard you can actually make explosive material, you don’t need an RPG round. Especially if you’re going after soft civilian targets and not tanks and shit.

    You can buy tannerite here and it's not regulated much, if at all. I think you have to shoot it, though. Not really my thing but I saw it blow an old refrigerator into like a hundred pieces

    They also intercepted every single cruise and ballistic missile last night, as well as 96% of drones (if you trust their figures). Sounds like maybe new Patriot batteries.

    Perfect doesn't have to be the enemy of the good here. Although if you want to battle test it, at this point Ukraine seems to be the best place (sadly).

    That's bizarre, seems like he pitched his nose up right before he fired the rockets, what the hell was he hoping to hit?

    On Iran/Israel, I don’t really see a likely path to deescalation any time soon? I did see this tweet just a few minutes ago which I find disturbing. 25+ air tankers just took off across the Atlantic…..

    Just post in the Middle East thread dude. With that being said Israel is clearly targeting regime change, I don't think anyone has a real clue.

    I don't think even Netanyahu wants to send troops into Iran, I think he wants to incite their people to rise up against the regime but I don't see that happening any time soon.

    Unless there is another thread other than the Tehran up another piece I’d say continue to post updates like that here. A lot of overlap between Ukraine and the latest Middle East conflict and a whole less shouting down people in this thread. 2cents.
