A16Z-backed ZeroMark wants to give soldiers guns that don't miss against drones
- talldayo 2y ago> He added that the company has developed robust licensing, remote activation and fleet management features to manage the use of the systems. All systems ostensibly more important than, you know, actually shooting down drones.
