An anti-aircraft gun that doesn't require bullets that can shoot down UAVs is being tested by the Russian Army.

Using very high-frequency waves, the way this gun works is similar to the current bulky jammers, except they are more compact. When aimed directly at the target, the high-frequency waves will cause interference, loss of signal, and the enemy's remote-controlled aircraft will be immediately disabled. Photo source: Nomac. |

Not only can it be used to destroy enemy spy planes and drones on the battlefield, this high-frequency wave gun can also easily "shoot down" remote-controlled aircraft with cameras, also known as Flycam, which are very popular among young people today but often "accidentally" fly into military areas and record footage.

Many countries around the world are having headaches with Flycams used around military areas, while using large jammers to "screw" these flycams is too time-consuming and cumbersome. Photo source: Nomac. |

The US Army even raises... eagles in its military bases to attack stray drones, but that method certainly cannot be as effective and stable as using these high-frequency guns. Photo source: Nomac. |

Weighing only about 20 kg and using a large rechargeable battery, this gun can be easily carried by infantry units on the march and can be used in many harsh weather conditions without losing accuracy. Photo source: Nomac. |

The high-frequency gun is still in the testing phase, although the results are quite positive and it is expected that in the future this gun will soon be put into production in large quantities. Photo source: Nomac |

If this gun is put into use, it is likely that its technology will be applied to design guns with greater power, enough to shoot down even large drones operating at high altitudes. Photo source: Nomac. |
