DARPA: As drones become faster, smarter and capable of carrying larger payloads over longer distances, they pose a real threat if used as weapons. So the military is scrambling to develop countermeasures to hit them in the sky, including a new approach that launches them Movies.
Aiming and dropping a drone from the sky isn't impossible, but it isn't easy either. So the military is pouring a lot of money into developing an anti-drone technologys, just like for the development of drone technology.
DARPA, the US Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, seems to have developed an alternative way of neutralizing drones according to the video below that shows a drone drone falling to the ground after dropping films. The Achilles heel of most drones, whose maneuverability and stability in the air depend on spinning all the propellers at once, is finding a way toactivationof one or more of them.
Watch the video
DARPA has developed a system for detecting, locating and tracking drones, as well as an automated system that makes flight path predictions. It then automatically activates its reusable "weapons" in the field, and waits for which of the two can reach the drone first.
Instead of lasers, bullets, or nets, the last approach to neutralizing the threat is to launch a cap of strong tape as it spreads as it travels through the air, increasing the chance of being wrapped in at least one drone propeller, which will stop the whole boat.
