 Defence weapon takes down drone swarm

 Picture MUST credit: Epirus
 A high-power anti-drone weapon has knocked 49 of them out of the sky on one go during a demonstration.
 The micro-wave powered Leonidas directs energy towards swarms of enemy UAVs.
 In the demo it knocked the group out of the air with one shot.
 The Ukraine Russia war has seen both sides deploy huge numbers of kamikaze drones to devastating effect and signals a new battleground in the sky.
 The Leonidas has been developed by Los Angeles based defence company Epirus over several years. But the latest incarnation is more able to deal with multiple drone strikes.
 It uses long-pulse microwave beams to burn out the electronics of small drones.
 Leonidas is software driven and can tailor its waveform for optimum effect, it is safe to use around humans who may be in the field of fire.
 It has the operational flexibility to handle a variety of scenarios.
 It can strike against targets with precision to take out hostile drones while avoiding collateral damage.
 The Leonidas can also be programmed to set up no-fly zones with safety corridors to take out hostiles while allowing friendlies to pass, sustain continuous fire without overheating, and take down swarms in one go.
 The recent demonstration at US Army Camp Atterbury, Indiana saw Leonidas take part in a live fire exercise in which it disabled 61 drones with 100% success.

 Une start-up technologique a annoncé un projet visant à récolter l'énergie solaire dans l'espace et à la renvoyer là où elle est nécessaire sur Terre
 Picture MUST credit: Aetherflux. A plan to harvest solar power in space and beam it back to where it is needed on Earth, has been announced by a tech startup. The US based company, called Aetherflux, plans to set up a swarm of satellites in low Earth orbit. Each one would be each equipped with a solar panel, a battery and an infrared laser to transmit the power down to the ground. The company wants to put up thousands of these satellites up to accumulate massive amounts of energy. The concept of space-based solar power is not new but ideas on how to harvest it have involved large spacecraft in geostationary orbit using radio waves to transmit back to Earth. Aetherflux is working toward its first mission now, with the aim of sending up a demonstration spacecraft in late 2025 or early 2026. It is already under construction and will aim to demonstrate solar energy transmission using the infrared laser is possible. Picture supplied by JLPPA

 A new weapon capable of bringing down swarms of enemy drones in a single burst of microwave power could soon be seen on the battlefield.
 The US Army has awarded defence tech company Eprius a contract worth just over $66 million USD to deliver prototypes of the device called Leonidas.
 Although the weapon downs enemy drones, it leaves friendly aircraft intact.
 The Russian invasion of Ukraine has demonstrated how small, cheap drones pose a threat in war .
 They are used for direct attack, reconnaissance and target spotting,.
 Outside of war zones, they can also be a deadly nuisance if are sent into civil airspace.
 Swarms of drones can overwhelm a location's traditional defences or force the deployment if missiles costing millions to destroy a drone costing only a few hundred.
 The Epirus Leonidas is a high-power microwave that has been under development for some years and the new funding is intended to transition the technology to field-capable prototypes.
 It defends against drones by firing blasts of microwave energy that disrupts or destroys the aircraft's electronics, sending it crashing to the ground.
 It can even be devloped to take on cruise missiles.
 
 OPS: The Leonidas will be developed for use against cruise missiles as shown in this render

 Swarm review - a scathing appraisal of Britain’s political parasites
 Donning an insect costume, the magnetic Liv Ello uses clowning to land a deeply serious point about our times.
 
 Swarm. Like Catts, it's a blend of clowning, theatre and video, which Liv Ello holds together with a succession of strong characters inspired by species of fly.
 
 The title comes courtesy of David Cameron, who in 2015 used the term to describe migrants crossing the Mediterranean. In an ambitious show tackling the dehumanisation of desperate travellers, Ello invites us to ask: who are the real parasites?
