So if you're gonna have major drone threats, they're gonna be internal lone wolves.

They're not going to be coordinated militaries with those capabilities.

Now, as you start moving and Palm or Lucky and they put out videos and it's very compelling, as you move from these 300, $400 individual drones

to much larger numbers of micro drone swarms that are going to be incredibly cheap and can be controlled from afar, that could be easily put in a much smaller, in a FedEx box, in something that can be shipped.

It's going to be very, very much harder to detect

You know, sort of how these things are being smuggled across borders.

Again, keep in mind this Ukrainian attack.

It's not like Israel against Hezbollah, where all those strikes came from Israel.

This was, you know, attacks that came from inside Russia.

The Ukrainians were able to smuggle these really inexpensive drones inside containers where the Russians didn't think there were any drones in them.

And so what does that tell you?

It means that the Russians can't have containers coming in.

And if they do, they've got to spend a lot more money and be a lot more careful about what they're doing on their security and their borders.

Well, I mean, I promise you that the stealth capabilities and the miniaturization capabilities of the drones is moving a lot faster than government's defense capabilities of their borders.

So, again, what is really changing is that much weaker actors, whether states or whether non-state actors, including terrorist organizations, are going to become a lot more powerful.

Now, the danger here is that we are now living in a world that is radicalizing a lot of people.

Right.

I mean, you know, this is a winner take all world.

It's a law of the jungle world.

And it's a world where the United States and a lot of other people don't care about you if you don't have power.
