Carpet bombing has strictly limited utility vs. humans and infrastructure, as shown by allied bombing campaigns in WWII. Strategic targets were bombed for years and the Germans kept building tanks and aircraft. Japanese cities were burned without breaking the will of the Japanese people to fight.
With nuclear weapons, the potential for total destruction of human civilization is extremely high. The "tons of TNT" measure doesn't take into account flash, radiation and environmental effects of nuclear warfare.
> So while you may see videos of drones taking out tanks, they are often tanks that have already been killed and drones come in on an immobile target, etc.
Those tanks are immobilized by other drones or mines.
> You would also think that Ukraine is using more drones than Russia - based on the videos.
Yep, Ukraine uses more drones than RF in both absolute and relative terms, because Ukraine uses 10x less artillery shells.
If Ukraine will win war with Russia, it will mean that Ukraine will take their place as mightiest country in the world. EU will be a good buffer for us.
Huh? Did Afghanistan take Soviet Union's place as the mightiest country in the world, when they pulled out? Did Afghanistan or Vietnam take the US's place as the mightiest country in the world, when they pulled out?
Supersonic missiles are very vulnerable to a debris in the sky. Instead of catching of a missile, a drone can be blown up in advance on predicted trajectory of the supersonic missile.
> In Italy the current defence minister is personally earning considerable amount of money by sending weapons to Ukraine, because he's also an owner and manager of companies that make said weapons.
FUD is the reason why Russian liars are banned from EU.
