Na hoffentlich behalten wir Kampfhubschrauber und Artillerie, denn das Drohnen und Jets das Allheilmittel sein sollen, sehe ich nicht, das zeigt auch wieder Anaconda:

On Day 1, one-half of planned strikes by B–52/B–1 bombers and fighter-bombers were
called off due to close proximity of special operations forces (SOF). While this was a necessary tactical choice brought about by unanticipated circumstances, it freed al Qaeda troops to ascend into defense positions in the mountains and to fire at deployed U.S. Army troops.

Moreover, enemy targets often were so well protected by the surrounding mountains and
ridges that hitting them with strikes was difficult. Exact hits were often necessary, and even precision JDAMs sometimes were not able to achieve this accuracy. Even when exact hits were achieved, only a single small target—perhaps two or three enemy fighters manning a heavy machine gun—was normally destroyed. Hundreds of enemy fighters were deployed in the mountains and ridges, thus creating a very large number of small targets, each of which had to be attacked individually. A further complication wasthat enemy fighters often would scramble for the protection of caves when they sensed an impending air attack, only to re-emerge after the ordnance had been delivered. Theprocess of rooting them out by air strikes thus was slow, frustrating, and time-consuming.Several days of intense air bombardment were needed before enemy fires began abating
noticeably.

Neben den VTOL-Fähigkeiten der Hubschrauber sehe ich einen weiteren Vorteil in deren Waffenwirkung gerade bei Close Air Support.
Hellfire, HOT, Spike, 30mm, 12,7mm haben einen beachtlich kleineren Danger Close-Bereich als Artillerie und das was die Luftwaffe so abwirft.
Wie du siehst hat alles seine Vor und Nachteile, jetzet nur auf bewaffnete Drohnen zusetzen, weil es unserer Industrie tut gut, wäre ein fataler Fehler.
Die Lösung sehe ich vielmehr in "Joint Fire" aber da muss die BW noch einiges tun.
