In the face of death, the occupiers show their true essence. They throw their helmets hysterically, fight back with automatic weapons, try to escape, but get what they deserve. A forest of EW antennas on the back of one of the occupiers did not help to escape from the "penal sanctions" of the soldiers of the "Rarog" Battalion of the 24th OMBr.

It just seems self evident, you'd think it would at least be considered. Every drone death I have seen the target is clearly aware of the drone and has had time to react and run.

Maybe. Getting a shotgun out, and pointed in the right direction is not instant. I can do it fairly fast when I'm hunting, but I keep plenty of extra paddles in my canoe so that after shooting I can go find the dropped paddles. I'm not sure if soldiers are in position to safely throw whatever they have in their hands. I'm also not sure if having a shotgun is worth the extra weight when they don't need it.

For sure this needs a military expert to weigh in on. Though I doubt they are talking yet.

Not sure if there are any experts on drone warfare yet

Compared to me Ukraine as a lot of them. Though your point is probably correct overall.

Of course it was the same way in WW1 with machine guns and tanks.

These days there’s still a limited amount of knowledge about how to attack and defend aircraft carriers.

So it could be that drone warfare is in the same ballpark with these other technologies in terms of understanding.
