Tactics win wars, technology can help, but the best it can be is a force multiplier. If you have no force, or foundation for that force, then we all know what multiplication by zero equals.

This is just patently untrue. My MRAP had an insane camera in it where we could pop a pole up and see for miles around us. This same camera was used on a blimp that would fly around OPs, LPs, and PBs that would do all kinds of image and metadata analysis. I remember seeing a post on this forum discussing that very blimp.
