What’s legit interesting that nobody has true answer for drones
https://twitter.com/WarMonitors/status/1662609528255307777?s=20
Banging a 2k buks drone with 5million missile ain’t the answer and s300 is no better since the missile is 500k-1 million. Jamming them also ain’t easy.

With AD saying it destroyed doesn’t meant the whole system.
Like here for examples https://twitter.com/xoBUNDYox/status/1651828383104524288?s=20 they saying destroyed s300 but that’s just a launcher a s300 typically has 12 launchers, radars and couple of other shit. Same with patriot.
But people call launchers the name of the system.

Higher speeds actually increase the chances of missing (And it might be why the US has abandonned development of hypersonic missiles), it's only useful to cruise to the target or to strike before the ennemy can react, so it doesn't really matter here that the patriot missiles can reach Mach 4.

I give you this one, it’s germoids fault since their gipards were supposed to shoot down those drones and wasting a 5 million missile that US can build no more than 150 a year to shot a 2000 buks drone like this: https://twitter.com/WarMonitors/status/1662609528255307777?s=20 and Russia can build 300+ of them per month

this is almost a meme in the missile afficionado community. Patriots OFTEN turn around and hit their host cities. Like, comically often.
