2021-05-30 at 10:30 PM UTCI'm sure you know I was talking in general among military-geopolitical analysts and commenters, not on this site.
I can write a bit about it if you're actually interested; the general gist is that the big boys such as the US and Russia are focusing on high-tech, high-cost solutions (ie. the US is pursuing ultra-long range platforms, Russia is working on AI-controlled support craft to pair with and support pilots), but Turkey (and to a lesser degree, Iran and Yemen) has found ways to leverage existing and much cheaper tech to great effect with the recent Azeri-Armenian conflict being a testing ground. The Armenians had a significantly better equipped and trained military, but they were completely unable to deal with the drone onslaught -
