So Zelenski is going to fire $6M a pop patriot missiles at $20K drones. The US doesnt have enough patriots for current world demand let alone the hundreds coke head would require. The only winner here would be the manufacturer.
In a peer-peer industrialised war, an advanced defensive weapons system like patriot has a limited time operating usefulness.
As soon as they start tracking and flying towards targets, they are transferring data about themselves to the enemy.
This enables the enemy (China) to develop countermeasures that will effectively be a day-1 exploit.
Ukraine is likely to be bombarded successfully as they have built up a lot of ordinance, and are able to overcome the Ukrainian air defences with sheer volume
