A trick dating back to at least WW1. (I saw it on Downton Abbey
Let's stick to the reality, that any "fighter jet drone" launched from hundreds of miles from a combat area, will have 2s-3s "lag time" on the guy controlling it from the "base".
That's how long it will take EM signals to be gathered by the drone, beamed back to the controller, then the controller has to act and send instructions back to the drone.
Not a good formula for any fighter jet, which is why that isn't going to be good use of drone technology. Could you use a swarm of drones, controlled by another fighter jet aircraft, close-by? Maybe, but if signals get jammed, like we already see with drones, it becomes a brick in the air once it loses that connectivity.
Individual fighters can have SOME sensors jammed, but the pilot can still immediately respond to threats. The drone can only complete whatever instructions you gave it; which means "unpredictability", and something that is "bad" in war.
We don't even have AI tech that can run a McDonald's french fryer or make Taco Bell burritos yet.
But we'll get one to control $30M in fighter jet technology, fo-sho!!!

Your take on this is entirely wrong.
We get it, you don't understand how this stuff works. Your ignorance is leading you to double- and triple-down on nonsense.
Dream On should be playing in the background.
My biggest fear right now in addition to Kevin McCarthy's statement is the internal upheaval currently in Great Britain with the Prime Minister resigning.
Can Ukraine still count on Western aid in the next 3-4 months?

Speculation in the comments that maybe these will be used to put down riots due to what Belarus is about to do.

Isn’t the House Minority Leader making those comments, not McConnell?
Wonder if that old Ukranian lady, posted way back around page 15-20, handing out sunflower seeds, is still available to help these guys out...
You retro- that with an electro-mechanical control/guidance mechanism, an audio sensor to track the loud drones and laser targeting/high-end optics to pick up the drone flight track and gauge exact target distance, and you'll knock 100% of them out of the sky.
Seems like it's just as stupid, if it cannot block Russian tanks and armor from running thru it.
Welp.....there's another Disney movie series we gotta boycott now...
And I think you are off by a digit!
How Much Does an F22 Raptor Cost? (A Breakdown) | Executive Flyers
The F22 is the United States Air Force’s most advanced air superiority fighter and likely one of the most expensive fighter jets to maintain and operate. There are an estimated 195 F-22s…

Hope the Russians don't do it.

I remember reading that there were more car pedestrian accidents during the Blitz due to the blackouts.
Russia really knows how to get the world on their side. One of the comments says they think Ukraine is at the point grain could still be exported anyway. I wonder about that. And yes, this would give the West the opportunity (excuse of keeping the sea lanes open) of chasing the Russians back to base in Crimea.
This is way beyond war, they are targeting civilization
WTF

Well, we'd probably be able to make it a VERY expensive endeavor...
