Well, relatively cheap. My DJI mini 4 pro is awesome, and I got some nice pictures from it. Sucks that it’s associated with war. It’s nice technology if used responsibly.

Anyway, my model is too small to carry anything but a letter to my brother to go eat his own ass, and mow the lawn more.

This ain't WWII, tanks are obsolete in modern warfare.

Tanks are nothing more than metal coffins.
Everything I post is satire.

Ukraine supposedly sunk a $60m+ Russian patrol ship with some sea drones

There are endless videos of Ukraine using cheap drones to take out people and equipment

Every military strategist and seasoned politician knows that tanks are ineffective in modern warfare.

So the question is: why keep spending money on tanks if they can easily be blown the f/ck up?

The answer is politics - tanks generate a lot of revenue for defense contractors, and so these defense contractors pay off politicians to keep spending more tax money on tanks even though a cheap DJI drone can easily take them out.

You know what else is useless? Attack helicopters (for the same reason as tanks), but again, they generate a lot of money for defense contractors.

What most plebs don't know is that tanks can't operate solo, they need troop support and full air support to even have the slightest chance of survival.


The only time tanks or attack choppers would be useful is if you're fighting poorly equipped insurgents. But against a relatively modern army, they're ineffective.

Doesn't matter if you feel they are ineffective, every country has a Armor brigade. Tanks being useless is not entirely true

at least Biden wants to make tanks electric - that's a great idea having more eco friendly vehicles not polluting during war. hopefully the enemies follow suit

Until something can replace the mobility, survivability and firepower of tanks, they are not going to be rendered obsolete.
