What does attacking those spinning blades do to the trained eagle?
Using an eagle on drones sounds like attacking a Cuisinart food processor with a wing and drumstick.
Cruel, silly humans.
The video, which is in Dutch, mentions about designing a protection system for the birds, also it would probably only be used on smaller drones with little likely hood of any damage.
Agree. There has to be a technological method of disabling or destroying these machines without resorting to animals as crash test dummies.
An eagle’s natural prey would bite back, they’re well-equipped to handle it and will learn the best approach with practice. I’ve seen red shouldered hawks take rattlesnakes.
It does sound stupid. Why not just armed drones?
