    Every air force in the world is shitting in their clothes watching what happened to that airbase.

      All armed forces are probably on a permanent anxiety attack with everything drone related that’s happening in the war in Ukraine.

      Outside of keeping everything in deep bunkers there’s not much defense possible against all the attack vectors drones open up.

      I mean, a moderately solid brick building would have stopped this attack. Not even a hardened shelter, just a garage would have worked.

        A competent pilot would’ve flown in throw the garage door, or down a chimney, or through a window. That’s the terrifying thing about drones, they are extremely maneuverable. They can be positioned in the precise point to make the most damage to the target.
