Nowadays, drones have become one of the very important weapons on the military battlefield. There have been many successful surprise attacks using drones. There is no doubt that drones have become a significant threat in warfare in the new era. While the militaries of various countries are constantly promoting the extensive use of drones, they are also studying how to counter them.

 

The methods to deal with drones mainly include physical methods and technical means, as follows:

 

First, physical methods ‌ :

 

1. Using rocket launchers to launch a net to capture drones ‌ : This method does not require so-called radio frequency manipulation. Instead, it directly uses an expandable net to capture the drone and brings it safely back to the ground with a parachute.

 

2. Using firearms to shoot down drones ‌ : This method is similar to the air defense strategy of World War II, using various light weapons to counter drones, including small and medium-sized Gatling guns, shotguns or high-caliber automatic grenade launchers, which are equipped to grassroots infantry units as hard killing means.

 

Second, technical means ‌ :

 

1. Disguise deception ‌ : By making models of fake aircraft, fake tanks, etc., to deceive the other party by passing them off as the real thing.

 

2. Hard strike destruction ‌ : Use missiles or artillery to directly strike unmanned aircraft, but this method is relatively costly.

 

3. Soft kill interference ‌ : This includes cutting off the signals of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) or using sound waves to interfere with the gyroscopes used by Uavs to maintain flight stability, etc.

 

Third, systematic approaches:

 

1. Early Warning System: Establish an effective unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) early warning system, including radar, optical and infrared sensors, as well as wireless spectrum monitoring devices, to promptly detect the presence of UAVs and track their positions.

2. Electronic jamming: Utilizing electronic jamming equipment to interfere with the communication and navigation systems of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), causing them to lose control or be unable to perform their tasks correctly. This can be achieved by emitting electromagnetic pulses, interfering with wireless signals, and other means.

 

3. High-energy laser weapons: Utilize high-energy laser weapons to destroy unmanned aerial vehicles. Laser weapons can instantly penetrate the outer shell of unmanned aerial vehicles through high-energy laser beams, damaging their electronic components or causing fires.

 

4. Missile defense systems: Deploying missile defense systems, such as surface-to-air missile systems or laser missile interception systems, can quickly detect and destroy unmanned aerial vehicles.
