In the United Kingdom, for the first time tested the energy weapon of drones (video)

Weapons are able to detect, track and destroy various threats on land, in the air and at sea. Thanks to radio frequency waves, it removes their components. In the United Kingdom, the military has successfully tested the RFDEW radio frequency weapons capable of destroying UAVs with radio waves. The systems are able to impress targets up to 1 km and cost only 10 pence (5 UAH) for a shot. This was reported on the site of the British government.

"Successful testing of our radio frequency weapons is an important step towards creating a revolutionary sovereign weapon for the United Kingdom," said the Minister of Defense Procurement and Industry Maria Igl. It is noted that weapons are able to detect, track and destroy various threats on land, in the air and at sea. The trials took place at a landfill in Western Welsh. During the test, the military successfully destroyed unmanned aviation complexes.

It is noted that RFDEW can neutralize targets up to 1 km almost instantly. For their defeat, it uses radio frequencies, they disrupt or damage critical electronic components in devices such as drones, which leads to stopping or falling. Recall that in the United States, a group of engineers under the leadership of the UK has successfully conducted a new series of tests of unmanned air system (BAS) based on a high-rise pseudo-sustain (HAPS) Phasa-35 from Bae Systems.
