The PTSD of surviving a battlefield like this will be a unique kind of horrific. Like, don't get me wrong - all PTSD is bad. But when the war ends and the Ukrainians and Russians have left their trenches, they're going to take with them the experience of being hunted by machines day and night. Any little sound of an electric motor, like from their kid's RC toy car, might be the thing that brings back memories of hiding in trenches, fox holes, abandoned & bombed out buildings from somebody hunting them with a drone.

It just feels so personal, in a way. Having someone fly one of these things around, looking for you. Having them hover right over you, trying to figure out if you're already dead so they don't have to waste the drone & explosives. Having them taunt you as you scramble for safety.

And yeah - the Russians definitely brought that shit on themselves. But they have drones too, now. And so will every army in the world after this war. It's just all so "Black Mirror".
