I’d rather make them fly them and let’s see the strength in their maintenance and supply systems.

Not necessarily a good thing. Two relevant articles.

MCPO Roger Collins Seen any articles on a swarm of drones vs whatever aircraft? We will outspend ourselves while every other totalitarian state purchases millions of drones.

MCPO Roger Collins I agree. It’s hard to target fast movers. I’d target them on takeoff. Swarm is a tactic by amassing drones at a single target.
