In the old cannon-armed sailing ships they sometimes loaded “Langrege”, which was short lengths of chain plus whatever odd metal scrap they could grab for the projectile. Tore the heck out of rigging, sails, and man alike at close range. Would work equally well on drones.
And if somebody ain’t thought of it yet a super-glue sprayer would prove mighty interesting doing battle at altitude!

Yeah. I saw that. The only issue I see is that they are using the Bald Eagle and there is no way to protect the bird.
Armor plated war Eagle!
Training a soft, flesh and blood animal to go up against metal, carbon fiber and multiple spinning rotors of death…. What could go wrong? Morons.
That is what I was thinking. That is fine for the $25 plastic drone but what about the serious stuff. They are going to teach these birds to know the difference? Now if the could train a vulture or bat to do something like that...then possibly. Train what was a bird threatened by extinction.....wth???
