It's probably fair to say that getting closer and closer to 100% is increasingly expensive.

The real way to get to 100% is to destroy your opponent's ability to build/pay for drones. Trump is threatening to do that to Iran. Hopefully he follows through.

**Really** good point about Ukrainians shooting them down for the most part.

Is it known what breakthrough is needed to defend against the final bits?

Speaking of, first reported footage of a Ukrainian interceptor drone taking down a shahed in the middle east. Specifical a P1-SUN in Iraq.

Writing an entire article about Iranian shahed drones and not once mentioning Ukraine's success – and assistance – in shooting them down is laughable.

Cheap drones are countered by cheap drones. They're not magic. Ukraine shoots down roughly 95% of all shaheds. One of the pioneers at this is even a charity that accept a Bitcoin: 

As long as the US doesn't do something stupid like give in to left-wing pressure and the psychos who want to see Jews dead, and negotiate yet another bullshit ceasefire, Iran's future is bleak. The next step is for the US to collapse the Iranian economy. Which being dependent on oil and gas is easily accomplished.

Unfortunately it's likely that a sufficiently high % of the Iranian population are islamists to make a revolution impossible. But the onus is on them to throw off Islam. If they can't, destroying the country is the best option for the rest of the world.
