Anyone following this? AZ is putting out a lot of footage that shows that drones and precision strike is a capability not just possessed by major powers.

Yes, N-K is a known frozen conflict and disputed territory. Don’t be surprised if Russia or its proxies show up.

GDLS Gets $1.2B For 144 Army Anti-Aircraft Strykers - Breaking Defense
General Dynamics Land Systems can now order materials to start building the first 28 vehicles, worth a total of $230 million, in 2021.
Look like the Army has been watching this and other recent conflicts
Hell yeah. They are underselling it by labeling it just an “anti-air stryker.” That 30mm cannon and 2x Hellfires make it a no joke all-purpose welterweight ground combatant. The only thing I don’t see is a V-hull, which is probably bc we want to keep as many interchangable maintenance parts with the rest of the stryker fleet.

Pretty much any missile air defense designed to counter low cost kamikaze drones is on the wrong side of the cost curve (other than by preventing the larger cost of having equipment it is protecting get hit by the drone).
If the current pace of drone proliferation continues, lasers or other DEWs/soft kill based defenses are going to shift from "nice to have" to mandatory.

It was most likely a missile off of a TB2 drone. Though they have also been using Israeli loitering munitions to target groups of soldiers like this.
Perspectives | Did Russia win the Karabakh war
With its dramatic brokering of a ceasefire agreement between Armenia and Azerbaijan and the deployment of peacekeepers to Nagorno-Karabakh within hours
Unpopular opinion: Russia wins again, by gaining and maintaining de facto control of foreign regions in its periphery where the demographics include Russian-speakers, Eastern Orthodox religious affiliation, and/or allied Russo-Slavic ethnic groups.
Pretty cheap compared to most of what we and our allies have to shoot down drones now.
While many folks to include some of those here know better I think this and Turkey's offensive in northern Syria last year are big warning flags on the proliferating threat of UAV's.

I don't think they won much at all, if any external power 'won' anything it was Turkey. As Armenia's 'protector' they and the equipment the Russians sold the Armenians utterly failed in the face of the the Turkish and Israeli-supplied Azeris.
Maybe Russia wanted Armenia to be unable to defend itself solo. Maybe Russia benefits from an Armenia that wants increased Russian protectionism, and an increased avenue for Russian arms sales.
Or maybe the Russians ignored the issue and didn't really wake up until Azeris started kicking the Armenian's asses, and blowing up S-300's with ease using cheap Israeli and Turkish drones. While Putin sometimes plays well with the limited hand he has he ain't the chess master that many seem to make him out to be.
