Cartels Recorded Using Anti Drone Systems
Published 1 years ago
Footage reportedly shows members of an unspecified Mexican drug cartel using a high-tech anti drone gun in an unsuccessful attempt to jam a rival cartel's quadcopter before it can drop explosives.
It's not clear how the criminal organization obtained the device, as they are not exactly a mass produced consumer product. However, it appears the user hasn't received training on its use as the drone was able to drop multiple munitions.
It's also possible that these anti drone guns are not all that effective. We have seen pictures and videos of them in the hands of Ukrainian troops, but rarely, if ever, have we seen any users or videos boasting of their successes implementing them.
