No the problem is that operational security necessarily biases what you see.

Drones, unlike many other systems produce a lot of kill footage and due to the specific users a lot of that is getting uploaded right now.

Successful sorties get uploaded, unsuccessful ones do not (if only because it's boring media).

No other system does this: artillery and missiles don't, manned systems worry about opsec, etc.
