In heel Europa wordt geprobeerd de USA eruit te werken. Maar Nederland, en de Nederlandse defensietop, moet weer met een blanco cheque diep in de Amerikaanse reet kruipen, en Europese bondgenoten bruskeren.

"Nederland sluit aan bij Amerikaans project voor onbemenst gevechtsvliegtuig"

-> "Nederland is het eerste land dat zich aansluit bij het programma."

🐔 Japanese Farmers Send Out Automated Laser Drones to Defend Chickens

「 When deployed, the drone automatically navigates toward unwanted nuisance animals before blasting them with a dazzling array of red and green lasers.
It’s a scheme proposed by NTT to ward off predator mammals or wild birds which have the potential to infect poultry flocks with bird flu 」

Bullets basically bring down planes only when the weight of lead fired exceeds their maximum takeoff weight.

The shooting down thing seems to have been introduced in translation.

The actual law is aimed at setting up a joint unit to enable the civilian police (with no drone interdiction capabilities) to liaise more closely with the military (that has drone interdiction stuff), which they legally may not at the moment.

The big question for Germans is whether this result of the #RussiaUkraineWar is taking Germany back to a pre-WW2 rôle for the #Bundeswehr.

German infrastructure hit by drones, cybercrime, arson

There are now almost daily attacks on critical infrastructure. In the same week that drones were spotted over several European airports, a cyberattack against security software used by many of those same hubs, including Berlin Airport, left passengers and personnel scrambling.
