    It hurts to see what countries like Lithuania do for the Ukraine while others cannot get their stuff together. It is probably a mix of solidarity and fear to be the next victim. It is a strong symbol, but the small baltic countries unfortunately do not have the financial power to make a big difference when the large ones are busy doing other bullshit

      Would that even work? How would you detect the missile? And even then, are they fast enough to evade the blast anyway? I would assume anti drone missiles probably would close the distance way too fast and detonating on chaff would probably still carry significant risk of losing the drone.

        Well they are flown by a person so they could see it in theory at least from a certain angle, unless the camera are 360. The rest though ya, might be a problem
