My suggestion is to copy that design and manufacturer tens or hundreds of thousands of those Switchblade drones. Then distribute them to all military units across Ukraine. And train everyone on how to use them.

What probably had happened is they are priced arbitrarily high because of greed and pork, but discounted in terms of value by older commanders who dislike new things. So taking something that could be a trump card if widely and rapidly deployed and neutralizing it due to stupidity and greed.

There is a window here where these are not widely deployed by the enemy. That window could close in months as the enemy sees how effective they are and recruits help from China (where they are very expert at building drones).

This is so evil, but feels fair considering Ukraine was attacked, and Russia killing civilians routinely.

There is nothing evil about killing invaders.
