How close are we to making a system that can have multiple counter measures autonomously deployed?
(1) if prop based, launch something to snare the props
(2) if reflective, pre-launch something to spray black non-reflective paint at it, and followup with laser
(3) if evasive, approach with random manouvers
(4) if unknown, launch everything and see what works, and feed it back to the training data ...
etc, etc.
- jandrewrogers 1y agoMirrors are not an effective defense against military lasers. The power levels are too high and dielectric mirrors only work over narrow wavelengths. In the specific case of US military tech, some of the platforms use white lasers such that even dielectric mirrors are pointless.

- gosub100 1y agoI would try a shotgun style subsonic load with an adjustable fin/spoiler system that can be calibrated relative to the range of the target. The projectiles fin would flare out to reduce speed as it approached the target. Then an explosive charge would release a spray of super glue or pancake syrup, or something to gunk up the mechanism or disrupt the airflow on the propeller.
