The war in Ukraine has shown that highly integrated drone operator's with small UASs can fill that role. In the future, it isn't going to be a USAF or CIA operated drone circling at 40,000 ft, launching a $200,000 missile or dropping a $25,000 bomb... it will be a platoon or battalion level loitering munition operated by the people on the ground that costs $3,000 or $5,000.
