I'm skeptical about the "cheap drones: who knew?" narrative. Such drones have existed since 1944.

There's been a massive step change in their capability per unit cost.

What used to cost millions per unit now costs tens of thousands. That's significant.

It's like saying artillery isn't that big a deal in 1914. After all, it's been around since 1452.
