Thinking about it though, i could get absolutely burried in details rrying to think of counters and counters-to-counters haha.
- protomyth 11y agoThe bigger problem would be the quick ID on the drone as opposed to a bird. You shoot down an eagle and you should expect to get hammered in the press. I would also expect some protests if you are constantly using radar.
- marak830 11y agoDamn i didnt even think of that. Radar would return differently id imagine, but then you would have people trying to match an eagles radar cross section haha.
- protomyth 11y agoI get the feeling the moving parts on a bird versus a drone could be your key identifies. After reading nogridbag's solution, I'm starting to think golf driving range nets[1] that are used to keep golf balls from flying into the road. You would need to put a top net and probably still have to have an active defense for that one drone to blow the net, the second to run into the plant situation. 1) http://www.gourock.com/golfbarrier.html http://www.gourock.com/golfbarrier.html

- protomyth 11y agoI would note that the birds did not exactly survive that encounter so you can expect some protests at your "bird swarm defense" grand opening. I would also imagine the method you use to make the birds take flight might also generate some publicity. Now, seagulls are not universally loved (quite the contrary), but I do believe you might get some pushback. It would probably work and be the cheapest solution.
