Eric Schmidt, Drone Warfare and Military Startups
Former Google CEO Eric Schmidt discusses the transformation of modern combat through low-cost drone warfare in Ukraine. Schmidt highlights the use of $400 kamikaze drones and the need for "cruise missile drones" to bypass Russian electronic jamming. He advocates for a decentralized "startup" model for military innovation, involving dozens of small companies rather than traditional defense contractors.
