    ‘Isn’t It Time To Shoot Him Down?’ Russians Grow Frustrated With Ukraine’s Yak-52 Drone-Killer.

    ---------------------------------
    Shades of the Vickers Gunbus; Ukraine builds a great plane to modify
    with an unobstructed front gunner, the twin pusher A-36. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aeroprakt_A-36_Vulcan

    Now pair it with a Wild Weasel to jam the drones' RF control link and hopefully the radar of a jet sent to intercept.

    Meanwhile, semi-same topic,
    Near Sea-Tac Airport, possibly the City of Sea-Tac put
    on a 4th of July celebration show near/by Angle Lake.
    Over 50 drones were clobbered by some interference,
    and made 'soft' landings into the Lake.

    There, you have enough key words to look it up
    further.

    They recovered most from the bottom, but they
    apparently will never fly again.
    Each looked about 2' by 2'.
