If it can put out enough RF, it will fry the electronics.
yeah that could be a hell of a trick but I’m not sure it’s possible… perhaps if they’re beamforming with phased array radar systems and can pump out a lot more juice…
yeah that’s the idea but the level of precision is really quite tricky when your target is a pcb hovering ??? away and not standing still. basic beamforming is easy, the trick here would be damned impressive.
like change wars impressive, and I don’t mean (only) ukraine.
They’ve also got a drone-mounted version that can get right up close and blast them with angry pixie hate. Was poking around their site a little and even when you account for how much is probably marketing wank or testing under ideal cases, these look pretty good.
I was going through their site and it looked almost too good to be true.
If it works as advertised, our government should make a clone of this (our productions and operational costs are always going to be significantly less than in the US), perhaps even under license.
Think it’s time to start putting together a letter to some politicians here in support of adding these to a future aid package. I don’t expect to convince anyone alone but maybe I can add my raindrop to a flood if others have the same idea. This is potentially life-saving tech (if it can get to where it’s needed, anyway) and exactly what I want my tax money doing.

Looks like they thought of that. From the first article linked in my reply to your other comment (one with headline “US Army awards contract…”):

Lol, angry pixie hate
