A Lawrence question: tanks, aircraft carriers, and military planes have become assets too valuable to risk in actual combat (e.g., F-35 at $80 million each). Drones are astonishingly cheaper and harder to find/track/kill. How do you think the role of the expensive assets will change in the next two decades?

For Sam: given that there is virtually no aspect of the country that isn't broken, what criteria should be used to set priorities?

For Lawrence: despite my best efforts reading around, I struggle to understand Wagner's role in Africa. Can you shed any light?

Thanks for the Substack!
