    The article isn’t clear on the max range, but the tests seem to have been done at ~1 km, that’s doesn’t seem viable for military applications.

      Depends on the purpose. If it’s to take out suicide drones attacking vehicles, 1km gives it a good amount of lead time to track and fire at incoming drones. For longer range surveillance drones, probably not as effective

      No, I merely meant that if two dudes can build a working example in a garage, there’s no way that there aren’t some really beefy ones in an MoD weapons lab somewhere
