About this listen
Drone swarms are changing the battlefield by making mass cheap and scalable. Hundreds of low-cost drones can overwhelm sensors, saturate defenses, and force militaries to burn through expensive interceptors just to stay alive. In this episode, we unpack why swarms are so difficult to stop and why the old math of defense no longer works.
The solution isn’t one weapon but a layered approach: beam, jam, burn. From electronic warfare that severs control links, to high-power microwaves that collapse clusters, to lasers that deliver precision kills at pennies per shot, we explore how these tools work together to break the swarm. This is the future of counter-UAS—where electricity, automation, and smart layering replace silver bullets.
