There's not a drone in the world that would stand a chance against the air defensive system the Russians would throw up over an advancing ground invasion.



A drone? Nope. A few hundred at the same time? Yup

And all of these on the ground taking them out as well:

Are you serious? Please tell me you're not serious. Please tell me what capabilities any drone has that would allow it to evade a modern anti-air umbrella. Yeah, drones are great over places where their biggest threat is some goat herder with a 40 yr old AK-47. But they're easy pickings in any well defended airspace. They're not very fast or maneuverable and they have a huge radar signature. The Russians would laugh at any attempt to stop an invasion by using waves of drones.

Modern MBT's and AVF's are designed with fire control systems that would turn that thing into a pile of molten scrap in seconds. And they wouldn't even have to slow down to do it.
