Drones OP. Can’t even play my melee build anymore. :(
The only legitimate reason to train like this is to flash your chesticles at wallmart. (I’m trying to think of an American place where to flash your chesticles and all I got was wallmart)
You can’t successfully invade a country with drones and bombs. You need boots on the ground.
What if you don’t want to invade it, just destroy it?
There’s a reason weapons of mass destruction are called that.
I would consider drones a very cheap and agile air cover. You can destroy something with regular airplane bombers, but these are cheaper.
That really remains to be seen, and it depends on your objective. Drones can do the precision ops bombs can’t that used to be reserved by troops. Really there’s not a lot of reason to waste hundreds of thousands per soldier when most of not all objectives can be handled without near human presence.
Depends on the objective. Invading a country? Drones is nothing more than a cheap air coverage.
You can send a zillion drones into battle, but the country isn’t yours until you have boots on the ground and setup a foothold on the land you want to claim.
I’m pretty sure being able to kill anyone that dissents at any time in any situation overcomes the need for boots on the ground even in an invasion or complete takeover scenario – and drone warfare has reached that stage.
Jamming radio is pretty basic, and then the drones are useless. Unless the operator is close enough so the drone can be controlled by a cable, or visual signals
Lemme introduce you to our autonomous drones: no human error involved, faster reaction time and higher precision.
Nice! It makes me feel so much better, if the error that gets me killed is not human error
exactly
Drones can’t establish a new base on captured land. Boots are the only ones that can.
You don’t really need that, you need control of an area. That’s why you put a base down. Drones can control an area without said base.
You’re thinking too small.
Small combat drone comes in, clears the area of The Enemy™ (results may vary, consult your user manual for assistance). Then, the large, base establishment drones enter and set up base operations, of course fully operated remotely. Repair and maintenance drones then enter the scene to ensure full operation.
The boots on the ground are the ones controlling these drones though. And if the other boots on the ground have no counter to drones they will be decimated.
The footage coming out of Ukraine is insane. I know that this video is heavily biased towards one side but look at the kind of intelligence these drones are providing:
I think the Russians might have a better time of it if they stopped having the flags hover over them all the time. I’m pretty sure Americans invading Canada would suppress that shit.
gd 3d spotting, it’s not fair.
Defensively drones are great since your objective isn’t too claim land. If your intent is to claim land, you need boots on the ground to claim land.
Empty boots, with smoke still emanating from them.
ask japan about that
The atom bomb was used as a defensive attack. We weren’t invading Japan
defensive attack lol
like the label really matters anyway
ASSAULT RUNNER ELITE
My feet hurt just thinking about running in those boots more than 5 minutes.
The thing that armies put more money than you’d ever imagine into is footwear. The U.S. spent ungodly amounts on testing various barefoot running stuff when the ‘better than shoed’ claims were getting popular.
Those are fancy boots. They’re basically sneakers, super lightweight. Can’t tell what brand but I know Nike and Oakley make boots like em.
