The Switchblade 300's biggest strength is its range: 10km iirc. There's really no other system you can carry as an infantryman that can hit small targets that far away. When trench lines are 2-3km apart across completely open fields, this capability suddenly becomes very useful. Say, for example, there's an enemy ATGM emplacement 3KM away. That's out of range of Javelins, sniper rifles, most DJI drones, the Carl Gustaf...pretty much everything. But the Switchblade 300 can take out the crew easily; that's well within its range. It's not flashy, but it is still extremely useful in this type of warfare." View Quote Point in fact the Javelin missiles are claimed to have a range of 2500m with the first generation CLU but Ukraine claims no loss of effectiveness to 3750m. The same missiles with the new CLU are claimed to have a 4000m range and from a vehicle, a 4750m range. |

With high population density in an agrarian society, you need to minimize the number of people feeding off the land in your neighborhood to survive. For obvious reasons, you start by eliminating those who speak different language and prey in a different way. You kill one of theirs, they kill one of yours, now you're in a Hatfield and McCoy on steroids territory.
