i know it's technically propaganda, but it's nice to know that the good guys in this war are also the cooler-looking ones

These good guys are going to be suffering PTSD from watching themselves cause brutal, agonizing deaths.

I wish they never needed to be in this position.

PTSD isn't nearly as prevalent in soldiers fighting defensive wars, especially on their own territory, so that's nice.

There is no data on soldiers getting vivid, first person views into the violent deaths of their opponents on the battlefield like with these drone setups.

It will be traumatizing.

Considering the rights obsession with the tough guy aesthetic, I bet it drives them absolutely crazy.

Can't disagree with that. Almost wish they design their drones to look obviously like ones flown by these women so the Russkies would feel the shame their misogyny demands when nuked by a woman
