The FAA is okay with these international flights?
They all use GPS, and you can jam that I would think.
France is using eagles to take down drones. I’m not sure I would want to put eagles in harms way.
we need to develop the technology to detect and destroy these.
Drones are really hard to find in flight. Their radar signature is very small. However they do have a return address. That drone flying across our border is controlled by radio signals that say, “here I am.”
Solution is very easy, just kill the signal with a few ounces of C4 on a killer drone. It will kill you.
Hire me- I’m very good with a shotgun.
They would sure make for fun gun practice.
10ga 00 shotgun for the low flying drones.
AR-16’s for those a little higher.
“MAW DUCE’s” for the high flyers.
After that chase them down with A-10”s!
HAPPY NEW YEAR to all the FreePers
AND Jim Rob!
Bofors would work well if linked to electronics.
Doubt drones could stand up to that.
What, they have no helicopters, shotguns?
Build drone hunting drones.
Would there be a reward if i captured a druggee drone?
If so i would hightail it right away to the border with a hunting drone, because i already have it planned on how.
What’s payload?
I’d gues best used for H
Directed-Energy Weapons exist and they increase the temperature of targeted surfaces. At high decibel levels the targets will catch fire and/or explode. ...Might be used to down drones.
Does the FAA still forbid shooting those things as they spy or bring drugs on us? What utter bull sht
DEA should start prosecuting high-profile Hollywood users and celebrities.
“Build the wall and force the cartels to go over,.........”
Isn’t that exactly what the drones do? Duh?
I can see drones will be very difficult to stop UNLESS a special frequency can be initiated that would allow for the Border Patrol to override the onboard operating control systems of ANY drone.
BP has had issues with ultralights being used to smuggle drugs for years, and it seems they have a really hard time intercepting them too.
They need more technology, tons of money has been wasted trying to use technology as a fence- that has failed. Money needs to be spent on detection technology. Another issue BP has is often when something is detected there is no available manpower in that area to respond. The cartels seem to have better intel about where BP is than BP has where the smugglers are.
Instead of fighting drones the cartels should be targeted in a full-on military extermination.
