Drones are increasingly menacing the skies above, whether as buzzing nuisances destroying a scenic locale’s peaceful vibes or wielded as a kamikaze drone spreading terror.
As such, world militaries are intensely interested in anti-drone weaponry right now. Take the latest demo from the British Armed Forces to take down these suckers: shooting them out of the blue with a powerful laser beam.
The country’s Ministry of Defense recently tested the DragonFire laser at a facility in Scotland, according to a statement, where it was able to successfully shoot down high speed drones that “fly up to 650 km/h [404 miles per hour] — twice the top speed of a Formula 1 car.”

then how do they know what they weight?
So there is no defense against foreign drones?
Yes, yet which works to purify the body of Christ, the only on true church. Yet persecution can be the result of being forced to make a choice btwn compromise as in being called to go along with a LGBTAI+++ agenda events (as with Masterpiece Bakery) or because you proactively turn some tables over so to speak, as in preaching contrary to PC as cited in my post, protesting an abortion clinic etc.
The problem in the West is that most Christians are not being persecuted since relative few even seek to make it manifest that they are believers in gospel of Christ and share it in what they say and do and refuse to say and do. I have succeeded and failed in both.
More like Muslims and LGBTQAI+++ are stationed there to call the PC Police if they feel offended as being part of a protected class. Police removed the object of wrath in the interest of keeping the peace, which emboldens the offended offenders of freedom of speech by Christians.
The US gov. should classify the UK as an adversary of sound freedom.
