Our technology is vaporizing their 2010 drones. The problem is that it is currently very expensive decimating these drones but eventually they are going to run out of drones before we run out of missiles
I think they have already shot down and destroyed over 2,000 drones.. how many more do they have in their stockpile?

That poster is a known idiot. I've had him blocked on X for a good while. Nothing he shares can be taken at face value.

There is video of him saying it, man. I remembered him saying it earlier today but went to look for the video again so I'd have an excuse to post the meme.
I don't give a single shite what the X user has to say about it. frick Zelensky.

He owes US big time. They have more war time experience so no big deal. And Z is happy to get good press everyone happy.

Ukraine has drones that can intercept the shaheds that cost $1000 a pop, which is substantially cheaper than even our cheap interceptors. Makes sense to use their cheap ones instead of our better stuff
Least Ukraine can do can give us some, considering they owe us hundreds of billions of dollars

Ukraine has gotten pretty good at dealing with drones. True or not, it is worth talking to them. They kind of owe us.

Why are the weapons we denied giving to Ukraine called "Ukraine's weapons"?
It's like going to a bank, trying to take out a loan for a few billion dollars, get turned down... and then referring to the money the bank has as "my money".

They allegedly can produce 500 drones a day.

It’s been widely reported all day by a lot of media outlets. There’s something to it. I linked an article to military.com in the war thread. Here it is again:

KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — The United States and its allies in the Middle East are seeking Ukraine’s expertise in countering Iran’s Shahed drones, according to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. Various countries, including the United States, have approached Ukraine for help in defending against the Iranian drones, Zelenskyy said late Wednesday. He said he has spoken in recent days with the leaders of the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Bahrain, Jordan and Kuwait about possible cooperation. Russia has fired tens of thousands of Shaheds at Ukraine since it invaded its neighbor just over four years ago, launching a swarm of more than 800 drones and decoys in its biggest nighttime barrage. Iran has responded to joint U.S.-Israeli strikes by launching the same type of drones at countries in the Middle East. Ukrainian assistance in countering Iranian drones will be provided only if it does not weaken Ukraine’s own defenses, and if it adds leverage to Kyiv’s diplomatic efforts to stop the Russian invasion, according to the Ukrainian leader. “We help to defend from war those who help us, Ukraine, bring a just end to the war” with Russia, Zelenskyy said. Ukraine has pioneered the development of cut-price drone killers that cost as little as $1,000, rewriting the air defense rule book and making other countries take notice. European countries got a wake-up call last September on the changed nature of air defense when Poland scrambled multimillion-dollar military assets, including F-35 and F-16 fighter jets and Black Hawk helicopters, in response to airspace violations by cheap drones. Ukrainian manufacturers have developed low-cost interceptor drones specifically designed to hunt and destroy Shaheds, and its rapidly expanding drone industry is producing excess capacity. Zelenskyy announced earlier this year that Ukraine would begin exporting the battle-tested systems.

That's objectively not true. Obviously no one knows for sure, but there are educated estimates that Iran has upwards of 80,000 drones stockpiled with capacity (still today even) to manufacture several thousand per month.
For better or worse they have been building for this inevitability for years

That guy, Brian Allen..... is a fricking idiot ate up with TDS. Anyone allowing him credibility in their mind are severely low IQ or high TDS. IMHO

Time to cut this AssClown off.

I tend to agree with a couple of the others. Ukraine owes us big time. If they can help with the drones, they should.

Yea but a lot of those stockpiles have already been destroyed. We have also destroyed their factories where they produce these things and also destroyed their warehouses and bunkers where they were storing these things.
Hegseth said the other day how excited he was that we can now upgrade our bombs to 2k which penetrates 200 ft under the ground. We have not been able to use these types of bombs yet
It's also going to be very difficult for them to get parts from China that's needed to make these drones - they won't be delivered by air because we control 100% of the airspace and I don't think China will risk shipping things by sea fearing that their container ship might get blown out of the water by a silent underwater torpedo
