In the Spanish Civil War many tried out new weapons systems. The
German Stuka dive bomber was one such airplane that terrorized people during that war.
Now in Ukraine the United States has furnished soldiers with the Javelin anti-tank weapon and the
HIMARS missile system, to name only two.
The Iranians are now furnishing the Russians with
kamikaze drones.
I just feel an echo of wars past. Nations trying out weapons systems in a foreign war.
