Those tiny fpv drones pack a tiny punch. Sure, it will destroy a current generation Chevy Equinox. But two weeks after the war starts, countermeasures will be created. The vehicles will be changed to make them harder to find, and harder to kill. A small drone will be rendered ineffective by small countermeasures. As much as I dislike the current US administration, Ford moving to making missiles and other military hardware is a good idea. They sure can't build a cost effective vehicle; yet there is a lot more potential profit in a Standard Missile, not to mention less competition.

Where did you get this?

Nobody solved FPV's in four years, why do you think US or any other country will solve it in two weeks?

"small drone will be rendered ineffective by small countermeasures" – only a person that lives under a rock and doesn't follow RU-UA war in any way can say such things.

Not solved. Made less effective. So it takes 100 of them to make any military effect.

The thousands and thousands of FPV drones being used have not been decisive on the battlefield.

The war is a slog, and resembles WWI more than WWII.

You don't know what you're talking about.
