Without control of the air, newly furnished US Abrams tanks are sitting ducks for Russian MiG 31s. What ground-to-air defense against Russian air attack does Ukraine have?

Apparently, Ukraine’s only chance to defend against MiG 31 attack is to catch them on the ground with drones or ground-to-ground missiles

    We aren’t “wearing down” Russian forces…..we are providing TRAINING opportunities.

    the US is making a new light tank for some reason

    all tanks need some form of air defense now
    from missiles
    from drone swarms
    and they need some level of stealth
    or they are just big dumb targets

    no level of air cover can stop drone swarms
    only some form of EMP cover over a battlefield might stop them

    Chalk up another loss for the US military.
    The only times the US military won anything in the past 78 years, were in fedgov aggressive senseless actions against people who pose no threat whatsoever to America.
