Like what? This is a pretty neat way to bring down the target while being able to apprehend the device. A lot of modern RPVs have crash landing software. doesn't keep it air worthy, but it can soften the descent. Also, in terms of splash damage, it is very precise. I imagine ECM attacks would radiate outward in an irresponsible way, causing non-targeted devices to fail. A fun aside: there were a number of secret programs that studied the weaponizing of the Apollo space program, should it come down to a shooting war. Instead of lasers, missiles, or bass cannons, their weapon of choice was black spraypaint. The concept was to approach and rendezvous with the target craft and cover the surface with black paint. After a certain percentage of the craft's surface area is blacked, the life support system in the target aircraft would be incapable of keeping the inhabitants alive. Another parallel could be drawn from the current Sino-Russo-American satellite shadowing that has been developed for the past few years.
