What happens when the sky is suddenly filled with dozens—or even hundreds—of attacking drones, all moving toward a target at the same time? Traditional air-defense systems may be extremely capable against individual drones, but a coordinated swarm creates a completely different problem, because defenders could quickly run out of missiles and ammunition while trying to engage one target after another. This is why the United States is developing a new generation of anti-drone swarm weapons designed not just to destroy individual UAVs, but to defeat multiple drones simultaneously and prevent large-scale attacks from overwhelming the defense network. From powerful high-energy microwaves that can disrupt groups of drones at once, to high-energy lasers capable of repeatedly engaging targets, autonomous interceptor drones that can hunt hostile UAVs, and next-generation missiles designed to prov
