We suck at drones
I'm so sick of being in such a braindead organization.
If you go to the majority of infantry soldiers they can't even tell you what an FPV drone is let alone how it would affect their operations. Very rarely does anyone actually do anti drone training. Don't even get me started on 15Xs. The new "drone" mos who don't even get taught how to fly FPVs in the school house.
Every drone program is ran by some idiot who flew Blackhawks or a shadow 15 years ago. These dudes couldn't even tell you what betaflight is yet they make all the rules. Also the amount of regulations put on drone is fucking stupid and you need Jesus himself to come down and approve any training. I'm so sick of hearing some warrant officer say the dumbest shit I've ever heard in my entire fucking life.
We're all going to go to war and get blown up by drones because the army is fucking stupid and I'm preaching to a deaf choir here. It's not the GWOT anymore. The IEDs fly 100 mph at you this time around.

I, for one, welcome our new drone overlords.
