The U.K. will allocate 325 million pounds ($416 million) to purchase over 10,000 "cutting-edge" drones for Ukraine, the U.K. Defense Ministry announced on March 7.
This is a fair take. Those marine drones are doing amazing work.
Somewhere in a timeline with an alternative timeline in Imperial Japan, there’s a guy going “what if we didn’t have to put pilots in our flying bombs…”. And a bean counter is figuring out if that’ll save money.
Besides what is in that link, I believe there were several other similar things going on between the USAF(or equiv. I don’t think the USAF was formed at the time.) and the RAF.

Nah, boomers here’d be like “That’s unfair to us who did it without drones!”
