Well, Buks are missile system from the 80s meant for fast flying fixed wing aircraft and cruise missiles. Drones are helos are their intended targets.

Buks from M1-2 onwards are relatively recent updated, and TB-2 is their normal target (moreover, Syrian buks had already done a lot of it in the past). M2s are quite new, M3 is shiny new.
I.e. when Buks are destroyed - it's a fail, age of the original system isn't an excuse here.

To be fair in this war we're seeing Buk from both side losing to things like Mi-24 and TB-2, it feels a bit off.

However I think I saw one video of a TB-2 getting shot down by something with autocannon, a Pantsir maybe. Whatever it was I think AA that's better suited for taking out UAVs will be needed in the future, maybe even vehicle mounted DEW.

A machine-gun caliber ~12.7mm CIWS might work well, too!

Nazi German invasion of Poland is historically seen to be a steamrolling of defenseless Poland.

Took 1 month and Germany lost 17000 troops, 1000+ vehicles and tanks, 270 planes.

Still proud??

This is false history. I have it, on first-hand account, that, in 1939, the German Army marched into Poland backwards and the Polish didn’t resist as they thought the Germans were leaving!
