alt Hacker News2000 shaheds are just a regular week in Ukraine.
90% of that are destroyed far away from targets and the other 10% do cause some damage, but it is usually far from being devastating as the drone is far from being very precise.
A single F35 which could penetrate air defense and go into the country would be a real problem. If Russia has 10 of them, I think it would significantly alter the current equation of power as it may allow for air superiority.

So where is the air superiority over Iran? This only proves Palmer Luckey right. Future of warfare has changed drastically and all countries are taking notes from this War.

im not so sure. Ukraine is sending drones over very long distances now, ducking through air defense.
I think that "air superiority" thinking is part of what's changed.
USA/Israel forces have air superiority over Iran. That doesn't stop Iran being able to fly drones or missiles.
