> of drones takings out US helicopters

They attacked a HH-60M Medevac helicopter which is a war crime, and also explains why it wasn't protected.

Also, the radar was Iraqi, although possibly jointly operated with the US.

No one cares about war crimes since years, US itself is allied in this war with credibly alleged war criminals. Besides, there's much to do against drones reaching a base other than locking down the gear in reinforced building and that's not practical when the gear is used which means whatever is on the open gets blown up. The Russians were putting tires on the wings, it did not help much.

I know no one cares, rather I was explaining why this Iranian hit is not a demonstration of any great success, they were hitting an unprotected target, in a non-US base.

I don't think that anything is protected against these drones unless locked down in a string building and not in use.
