Is there a possibility the leap in drone effectiveness leads to an escalatory response/precaution where, instead of worrying about defensively knocking out the UAVs overhead, the focus becomes knocking out their launch sites/platforms deeper past the immediate battlefield?
What would that look like? Goering’s 1940 focus on RAF airbases, only with waves upon waves of missiles?
I suppose what I’m wondering is, does tackling the UAV menace escalate the war even before it starts, by widening the area of operations beyond the immediate, limited battlefield? Does the low-cost alternative to full war end up summoning the monster sooner?
How do you kill this before it ever launches a drone? 🤷🏻‍♂️ Image
