FPV operators are like dinosaurs. Movement attracts them and there is very little you can do once they see you. With speeds of up to 300kph you can't outrun them - only maybe trick them into hitting something if you can change direction faster (unlikely). A 12ga with a fast spreading #4 shot...

So would a deployment of the French Foreign Legion to secure the border of Moldova (freeing up troops to go elsewhere) count as "NATO" boots on the ground?
