Oh, absolutely. Yeah. I mean, they stand to benefit too. And it makes me really scared as well because this is a capability that the U.S. is going to need too. And American industry doesn't have the capacity to build hundreds of thousands of drone rotors at a competitive price. So, it's a huge problem. And if there's any smart VCs out there that want to build a factory for something, drone

These are drone components that are made primarily at first in their inception for hobbyist aviation purposes, but now they have a great dual use in military applications. These drones, Mike, they're inflicting about 60% of the casualties right now on the Ukrainian side, or again, I'm sorry, for the Ukrainians against the Russians.

Absolutely. The tactical doctrine for how to do a platoon mechanized assault, battalion-sized mechanized assault, that doesn't work anymore because as soon as you leave your line of departure and you start heading towards the enemy positions, you start getting engaged before you're even within five kilometers of the zero line. 100% accurate. And not just for combat forces too.

So, yeah, it's changing a lot of things about warfare.
