Lego actually makes sense too, every one of those pieces turning into shrapnel could be even more devastating.

The drones are not made from LEGO. They are made from 3D printed parts.

It's worse than using nuclear weapons: whole fields covered with Lego pieces will prevent generations from walking the fields barefooted.

He’s just angry that they came up with c**** and just as effective versions of his overpriced drones.

I know, how dare those Ukrainians do the most efficient thing for their survival instead of thinking about the profit they could make for some shareholders on the other side of the world. The audacity

By actually being used, they’re a lot more useful than, say, Taurus missiles gathering dust in a warehouse somewhere.

Didn’t women make all the munitions for the allies that liberated his country from fascism?

He's right. Zelensky and his cronies are now trying to grift other countries into believing they have developed some amazing anti drone system. To even believe that the Ukrainians have some home grown competent weapons system when they're wholly reliant on NATO for supplies is laughable. They're selling a fake sales pitch to make money. If their system was so good Zelensky wouldn't be complaining about the lack of air defences being sent his way or that the focus to the Middle East is bad for them. They'll sell some c**** toys which will be found out and shown to be garbage.

Da comrade, good work on your zealous defense of Mother Russia. In honor of your hard work you will receive one less beating in the gulag tonight.

Thumbs me down all you like. Their corrupt defence ministry is looking for big deals for their pockets.

You are the worst of the worst. Ukrainians are stronger than any Russian every day. They would chew you up and spit you out.
