Well yeah we root out politicians being bribed by China semi-regularly at this point, but it's still a surprise to see Russia trying to directly infiltrate us.

Because to be honest Russia has probably already infiltrated US spy networks, lots of people have been accused of selling information to China, that's just how the spy game has always been.

People keep saying this but have only pointed towards naval answers which are incidental because they are more worried about missiles. There is no comprehensive anti-UAS platform, just a lot of conventional AAA weapons. You don't want single shot overkill weapons for cheap kamikaze drones.

I mean there are not many examples of high-tech militaries dealing with significant drone attacks because we haven't seen WW3. Jamming is only effective against commercial drones.

US military has placed countering UAS as a priority, they do not have a coordinated strategy on dealing with them. US still relies on conventional AAA to deal with drones. Every different theater would need many different answers as it currently stands, which is not a problem for the enemy just mass-producing cheap kamikaze drones.
