Where they put nets over the road for camoflage or physically catching the drones, right?
I couldn't find a good picture and for a second I thought you meant an earthen tunnel.

The Russians have an answer to that.[1] [1] https://www.thesun.ie/news/16173281/russian-dragon-drone-strike-ukraine-tunnel-life/ https://www.thesun.ie/news/16173281/russian-dragon-drone-str...
- araes 10mo agoProbably need to move over to fire resistant cloth mesh relatively soon if the thermite drones become a common battlefield sight.
- _carbyau_ 10mo agoThermite temperatures are over 2000 degrees celsius. It is literally burning iron and aluminium. Material science can do amazing things but a capable "fire resistant cloth mesh", cheap enough to use in the quantities required, will be a good trick.
- araes 10mo agoIt does not need to survive the direct impact of the thermite, it just needs to self extinguish and not light large areas of the mesh on fire. A couple foot size holes don't matter much in miles of mesh.
