This is the beginning of the end for the high effectiveness of shaheds for their cost, which isn’t to say they will go away but helicopters and to a lesser extent affordable fixed wing aircraft are nearly ideal for hunting waves of shaheds.

    Quite possibly, but I saw an article earlier today (didn’t comment and can’t find it offhand) about a something like $3000 interceptor drone they’re working on, which if those get successfully deployed could go a long way towards making the shaheeds less useful.

    Of course, that has nothing to do with this article, and you might well be right, sure.
