Why There Is No Silver Bullet for Countering Small UAS Technology Part 1

On this episode of the Aerospace & Defense Technology podcast, the guest is Michael O'Hara, CUAS Mission Solutions and Strategy Manager for Northrop Grumman.
In the first half of the interview, O'Hara discusses how Northrop Grumman first entered the military counter unmanned aerial system (C-UAS) space, how Ukraine is changing the way C-UAS technologies are deployed and operated, and the effectiveness of directed energy, high-powered lasers, and other new kinetic and non-kinetic countermeasures in warfare.
Look out for the second half of the interview in the next episode!
