Shotguns.. shotguns? And 5m quid cannons! You guys are living in TV land :) .. a drone, especially a drone of this type or most in your average purchasable category are controlled by? a frequency as I’m sure you know.
You can buy the materials for less than £500 quid to completely disrupt phone signals and drone frequencies.
Guardian should be making a very simple signal jammer… the army use certain types, including firing nets. But the fact is the science is about 30 years old. I built a kit not so long ago, basically a black box with two massive ariels, and some very large batteries .. which when switched on stops any phones in about 200m working, and drops drones out the sky. It’s sort of illegal to use them as they can stop other things working, like medical equipment etc but the science is there.
You can make them better by focusing the signal in a sort of EMP cannon.
If it was a military high altitude drone it’s a different story. But a load carrying commercial drone you can fry and drop for less than a thousand quid and easy to operate. Maybe I should send them an email.. simple solutions win.
