Hey Thane, I’ve been tinkering with a prototype that could detect and neutralize drones using a smart net—would love your take on the tactical feasibility.
Nice concept, but a few points. The net needs to deploy fast enough to outpace a typical drone's speed – think 30‑50 mph at best. You’ll also have to consider wind drift and obstacles; a simple net might get tangled or miss the target. Power and weight are critical – a high‑power release mechanism will add bulk, so keep it light. A secondary kill‑zone, like a small EMP pulse, could help if the net misses or if you need to disable the drone before capture. Test at varying altitudes and speeds; a single prototype isn’t enough. Overall, it's doable with the right balance of speed, precision, and redundancy. Good work, just tighten the specs and run more field tests.
