Small UAV "killer"
 
Necessity is the mother of invention....



China develops laser to take out small UAVs - IHS Jane's 360


Maybe France should get something like this to protect her nuclear power stations?

Good luck with that, China.
Only useful if it's on a high point, or the target is clearly visible.
Isn't the point of UAVs that they can fly extreme nap of the earth?
Rather hard to bring enough energy to bear on something that can duck behind a building in a second.

Golamv,

Great connection between large UAVs and the €1.000 drones that have been flown here over our plant. A shotgun will take out the drones here. But there is a better plan afoot. It's not about killing the drones over Golfech, it's more about getting the idiots that think it's clever. If you get my meaning.

Think it likely that anybody flying drones over secure establishments will find an auto assumption that they are terrorists. State will do whatever it wants until it proven otherwise.

Yup it might have seemed a good idea. But 2 weeks later after your home has been ripped apart. All friends questioned and focused on that idea may need reviewing.
