    It’s harder to intercept in general. In this case, drones have minimal radar and infrared signature and are extremely cheap…

    It’s impractical to spend a million dollars intercepting a drone that costs $500 to build.

      Lasers or fast firing small calibre weapons can hit drones. We already have weapons with enough accuracy to hit drones, what’s missing is a system to detect them. But with AI, cameras should be able to do that soon. Drones should then increase their camouflage. But they also are noisy, so sound detector might be another solution (probably not alone).
