For three years, FPV drones have been killing people on the front lines (and behind enemy lines) without giving them any chance to fight back, which is completely new in human history.

There has never been a weapon that allows the combatants to look their enemy in the eye and kill them without taking any risk.

Since the advent of the first projectile weapons—spears, bows, crossbows, etc.—the person shooting the arrow has always taken a risk (sometimes minimal, but the risk of being hit by an enemy arrow has always existed).

Today, the ability to kill a combatant is within the reach of anyone who knows how to use a joystick. It seems that the only effective method of destroying FPV drones is hard kill-physical destruction… so why is no one creating effective weapons that can be carried by infantry soldiers?

A .40 caliber or even .82 mm pistol loaded with 9 mm pellets connected by cables could give soldiers a chance of survival.

The most major risk is that a very rich and developed country will attack an underdeveloped country on the other side of the world and hunt down its population using drones, as if in a video game. Drones can be transported by ship and remotely controlled by satellite. Will the future consist of hunting real people down, from the comfort of your sofa?

Let’s hope not.
