DARPA: As drones become faster, smarter and able to carry larger payloads over longer distances, they are real threat if used as weapons. So the military is scrambling to develop countermeasures to shoot them in the sky, including a new approach that shoots films at them.
Aiming and dropping a drone from the sky is not impossible, but it is not easy. Thus, the military spends a lot of money on the development of anti-drone technology, just like on the development of drone technology.
Η DARPA, ο Οργανισμός Προηγμένων Ερευνητικών Έργων για την Άμυνα των ΗΠΑ (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency), φαίνεται να έχει αναπτύξει έναν εναλλακτικό τρόπο εξουδετέρωσης των drones σύμφωνα με το παρακάτω βίντεο που δείχνει ένα drone drone να πέφτει στο έδαφος μετά την ρίψη ταινιών. Η Αχίλλειος πτέρνα των περισσότερων drone, των οποίων η ευελιξία και η σταθερότητα στον αέρα εξαρτώνται από την περιστροφή όλων των ελίκων ταυτόχρονα, είναι να βρεθεί ένας τρόπος απactivationof one or more of them.

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 laser, bullets, or nets, the final approach to neutralizing the threat is to launch a cap of strong tape-like material that spreads as it travels through the air, increasing the chance that it will wrap around at least one propeller of the drone, which will bring the entire craft to a halt .
