The 'death ray' that can knock out drones from six miles away: UAV-freezing gun will soon be trialled by airports across the US

The rising threat of small, unmanned drones near airports is becoming increasingly important to the US. Now a UK-developed system capable of jamming signals on UAVs is going to be trialed by the US aviation authority. The system uses high powered radio waves to disable drones, effectively blocking their communication and switching them off in midair. A UK-developed system capable of jamming signals to small drones is going to be trialed by the US aviation authority. A thermal imaging camera allows the Auds operator to target the unwanted drone before signal jamming, via a high-powered radio signal, is activated.
