There is another, bigger problem: having a military strategy to use the drones, and people trained to execute it.
The military uses tabletop exercises, including people at places like the US Army War College: https://blog.highereducationwhisperer.com/2024/06/battlefield-trust-for-human-machine.html
The young bloods try things out, while the old hands look on see what might work, and which are the budding leaders to nurture. Then exercises involving some real equipment and people can be conducted.
The problem is that the real enemy many not act as expected, or rationally.In terms of strategy, large numbers of drones might make conflict more likely, due to less risk of casualties. On the other hand it might favor the defender, who can bottle up the attacker's forces. No one really knows.
