There is no doubt that anti-drone, or anti-UAV to be more accurate, technology is going to be an important part of the near future. There was an interesting show on TV recently about DARPA and a competition of several companies competing to defeat one singe standard off the shelf drone. They did it at a government range and had to get the FCC to allow them to use different jamming broadcasts or other ways to stop just the lone drone. It was eye opening on how many failed at the task. Imagine a dozen bad guys with a weaponized UAV heading towards a large group. Stopping just one is almost impossible, how do they stop a dozen?

Of course our military will want UAVs hardened to prevent the enemy from stopping them. It will be an interesting thing to watch. Paul, I guess you are in the middle of it all. That is cool.
