Assuming the drones/missiles cannot be easily jammed, the main counter to such an opponent would be to:
1) Know their capabilities
2) Stay out of range of the drone/missile swarm, until you have rendered them harmless (by destroying or blinding them).
- candiodari 8y agoThere are unjammable communications. Essentially ad-hoc networks using laser beams, coordinated from a plane. The reason it's unjammable is that you need to be in line-of-sight of the laser between 2 devices to jam it. Blinding swarms of drones with communications and coordination between them is impossible. If necessary, they'll just get their sight from a satellite above.
- trashtester 8y agoSo this would fall under the assumption that they could not be jammed, in which case the trick is to stay out of range, and destroy them before launch. Missiles like this with ranges of 100s of kilometers will be very expensive, and can be intercepted by cheaper missiles/drones (or soon, lasers).
