  1. That's just 50 more for the meat grinder. 50 people who can operate a defensive missile battery are worth their weight in gold because enemy attacks from the air can wipe out more than 50 infantrymen in a single pass. Those 50 people can prevent the meat grinder. Not to mention that 50 people in the front will not be able to win much of a war if an enemy can simply fly over your factories and power plants unopposed. What point is 50 extra people in the frontline if the enemy can win by simply erasing your entire economy and sending you back to the stone age?

  2.  @simpslayer7839  We've seen Russian-built systems get demolished by Azerbaijan with drones and the Russian-operated defenses in Syria get penetrated by B-1Bs with standoff weapons. Whatever they have, I'm not sold on it.

  3. To be fair, in the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict slow ass drones gave anti-air missiles hell.

  4. Iron Dome is severely limited, it's designed to counter the massed rocket attacks and not ballistic missiles. Israel uses other missile systems to protect themselves from ballistic missiles which are not Iron Dome.

  5. All missiles have a Pk, there's no workaround except firing in ripples.
