Hmmm. The Dutch military needs to offer a bounty pay bonus on any drone being flown over a base. Turn it into a target sport for their best marksmen.
There’s no way that could backfire…
If the pay is less than the cost of a drone, then the incentive either is null, or you become a specialist in low cost drones. Win win
what goes up must come down, you do that and there’s potential to hit surrounding occupied areas.
I mean the article says the military did just that anyway
I meant the bounty. Militaries have, or are supposed to have, the ability to check that they won’t hit anything if they miss. Randoms shooting down drones for a bounty aren’t necessarily equipped or incentivised to check.
No randoms… Military sharpshooters. Their best marksmen. Not Joe Public.
I see. Hm.
I‘ve heard they‘ve been starting to train eagles in Germany to take down small drones. Their claws go through the plastic rotors like a hot knife through butter.
