  1. And when we have articles like this on pages with discussion about Greenland folks are dreaming how they are drowing US Navy or effortlesly beating russians.

    With a single drone attack on Berlin alone it would be paralized for month. Yes looking on you recent act from arsonists who knocked out power to part of the city and can’t fix it for days

  2. Cue “why should we worry about Russia, they are stuck in Ukraine” posts

    Meanwhile the Bundestag is filling up with Russian plants and German infrastructure is burning.

    What do people actually expect to happen? Immediately shoot down every single drone? Those things are tiny, fast as fuck and can be launched in seconds from random locations.

  4. Unless something changed recently, the German army is literally not allowed to intercept anything flying over Germany because we’re not at war and it’s not posing an immediate threat. Police need to do that. But police *needs* to be able to do that if the army isn’t allowed to

    Ok, so let me get this straight, we bought a billion dollar missile defense system but when the Russian missiles approach some Russian sleeper agents can just knock it out with cheap Temu-drones, did I describe the situation correctly?

    I expect better results for my taxpayer money.

  6. Arrow 3 is a exoatmospheric ballistic missile defence system, its not designed for dealing with some vatnik in a van on the perimitter flying a dji drone up 300m?

    That type of drone defence is something thats an A. an incredibly complex array of parameters of deal with and B. actively developing as we speak. The Ukranians are by far the furthest along in countering that type of drone type attack/ surveilance Because they have a lot more reason to take on many imperfect solutions, instead of waiting for Western style miliatry development and procurement to provide solutions. And even they have daily drone incursions by the same style of vatink in a van.

  7. We are going to find turncoats in all out nations gathering data for our adversaries like this I guarantee it.Â
