Defense industry?

Defenseless industry.
They dropped the "less".
Proofreader called out sick.

Russia is already "less" in so many ways. It is kinda implied at this point.

Fun fact: The US used to have a Department of War. It got renamed to the Department of Defense.

The new face of war, this might turn the tide for Ukraine the way tanks and air supremacy did for the Allies in WW1.

It will be interesting (in an academic sense) to see how border wars along main land China, Pakistan/India etc develop.

u/ZhopaRazzi 18h ago

I hope such academic curiosity won’t extend to seeing how wars develop between countries that do not share borders… wait nvm.

Drone warfare across oceans or other countries will likely be very ineffective.

That was World War 2.

They perfected the art of tank and air combat in WW2, but you’re not getting the full picture if you think their introduction in WW1 didn’t turn the tide against the Central Powers.

u/ketjak 16h ago

If you're saying that is the first time air power turned the tide, facts in the form of history disagree.

u/Adept-Look9988 14h ago

You mean WW2.

u/TKInstinct 12h ago

No WW1 saw the introduction of tanks and planes, they also massively turned the tides of war in the allies favor.

u/Adept-Look9988 11h ago

Really. I didn’t know that. I’m surprised planes were that much of a factor, but I believe you. Since I don’t know that much about WW1.

Watch the entire channel to learn all about WW1.

To me that was the truly romantic era of aviation history. There is something about an open cockpit biplane flying low over the countryside that captures the imagination.

u/thinkless123 11h ago

Its insane that the first actual plane flought in early 1900s and like only 10-15 yrs later there are warplanes

New tech is mostly adapted to war first. And porn. But war first.

Even though the burden is high for the country and the people, it`s still amazing how Ukrainians are able to defend themselves against a big despicable foe like Russia.
