Yeah, but it’s not in use in Ukraine (like it would work or make any difference lol, pretty much like the Armata tank). Nothing either side is using was developed in 21st century. Late 20th at most.
F-117 (which is still 20th century but more advanced than cold war era stuff they are using now) and F-35 would shred any AA, in my armchair general opinion of course.
I mean by the fucked up definitions in the US boats, planes and ground troops exist in all branches of the military but if you go by actual technology anything flying for more than a ballistic ground-powered throw (like artillery would have at most) should absolutely be considered part of the air forces.
Yes BUT! The drones they are currently using aren’t really an air force. If they’d be using Reapers and the like yeah, but BabaYaga is not really an air force.
I guess we are a bit splitting the hair though here, we could nitpick forever!
There is nothing modern in airforce in Ukraine in either side
Hey, Russia had an Su-57 and an S-70! …I mean, they had to get the fighter to shoot the UAV down, but still, they were there!

I would argue drones are quite a modern addition to air forces.
Drones are army, they’re just a fancy grenade/pair of binoculars, when you think about it. Or maybe a missile.
The ones they have been using that fly for dozens or hundreds of kilometers aren’t really just grenade or binocular levels of equipment.
Neither are ATACMs. They aren’t air force though.

Would probably still be enough to give some WW2 troops a lot of trouble.
