Why are people, who obviously are anti-China and pro-Western/US, both on this forum and of course the broader Internet, so adamant in telling/warning China/Chinese that Russia can backstab China on a whim?! Like it just is pure disingenuous concern....

Who gives a shit? I'm sorry but who's the biggest enemy of China and Russia right now? It certainly isn't each other. Why the hell are you bringing up the past from 30 years ago and even worst 30 years into the future where no one knows anything? Are you trying to start something here buddy? As of right now, China and Russia both have similar interests and are being threatened by the same superpower. Trying to instigate between China and Russia right now only makes you look like a CIA puppet. Get that through your skull.

Russia have several drones and they extensively use them in Syria and blacksea. drones cannot operate effectively without EW environment around them.

It's not that Russia can't make drones at all, it's that they don't have them in large enough numbers. In a conflict like this, drones should be used as consumables.

If a drone dies while exposing an enemy sam site or even just a manpad team it is worth it. As of now apparently Russia can't afford to use them this way?

It still doesn't help with the gas issue, where Russia supplies approximately 40% of European demand.
Most of this is covered by the 4 pipeline networks below.

55BCM Nord Stream 1 (Baltic Sea)
33BCM Yamal–Europe (Poland-Belarus)
26BCM Soyuz (Ukraine)
28BCM Brotherhood (Ukraine)

If Europe wanted to completely replace this gas, given that the average new build LNG tanker carries 0.17BCM of gas, Europe would need an additional 835 LNG tanker deliveries per year or new pipelines from alternative sources.

That would take at least 3 years.

Glad someone did the math!

We don't have the actual large battle field video with fire fights, so there is no telling whether UAVs are use extensively. Most of the video we have are mostly taken from handphones, and many are not of high definations. Also it is very difficult to spot a UAV flying at high altitude, especially by civilians standing by their windows.
