    The way drones and UCV’s are developing in this conflict reminds me of the rapid development of aircraft in WW1.

    Progress that would have taken decades in peace time is happening in months.

      And for the cheap, which I find intriguiging.

      Reminds me an article on how supposedly the Spitfire was developed in less than a year and on a shoestring budget, with Churchill just giving the team the information on how they had just the X amount of money and the Y time frame to come with a new airplane.

      Supposedly the team just ran with what they already knew worked and tried to perfect it. And it worked.
