@SilentMesh_ @paulofonseca Acoustic mesh is a solid layer for perimeter work especially against fiber-optic links where RF sniffers go blind.

@SilentMesh_ @paulofonseca This makes sense. Unlikely all deployment strategies but for this one it would appear that a uav launched inside the mesh would go unnoticed depending on the range to the sensors. Thinking of a tunnel or submarine to air type strat (edge case lol)

@SilentMesh_ @paulofonseca Acoustic arrays bypass radio jamming entirely, which makes them a smart layer for perimeter warning when RF is saturated. But acoustic detection gives you a bearing, not a precise grid coordinate closing that loop requires a visual sensor to pick up the track once the cue drops.

‼️‼️🇺🇲 BIG | The USA for the first time shot down a fiber-optic drone The American company Epirus reported a significant breakthrough in the field of countering drones. Its microwave system "Leonidas" for the first time hit a drone with fiber-optic control - one of the most difficult targets for modern electronic warfare means. Previously, the complex had already hit a swarm of 49 drones, but the new test was particularly significant. In December 2025, at a closed test range of the US Army, the system was able to disable a fiber-optic UAV, depriving it of control and causing an uncontrolled fall. Fiber-optic drones, which are widely used today, including in the Ukrainian theater of operations, do not use radio control channels. The signal is transmitted via a thin fiber-optic cable, which makes such drones extremely difficult to detect and suppress. In a report by the US Army in 2024, such drones were called "one of the main threats to air defense systems and anti-drone warfare". The CEO of Epirus noted that the mass spread of fiber-optic UAVs has become a turning point in the evolution of unmanned warfare and has revealed a serious gap in anti-drone defense systems - a gap that "Leonidas" is designed to close. In 2025, Epirus received a contract for $43.5 million for the supply of two second-generation "Leonidas" systems. Its range of destruction is more than twice that of the first version; a 30% increase in power; there are built-in high-energy batteries; a reduction in dependence on external power supply. The system can be installed on: Stryker 8×8 armored vehicles, light tactical vehicles, other mobile platforms. See the latest updates with us: Visioner

Hezbollah’s fiber-optic FPV drones, which cost under $500, are disabling Israeli Merkava tanks worth $5 to 7 million. The IOF does not have a single weapon in their arsenal that can detect these new drones, which are completely immune to traditional electronic jamming devices. VPol journalist Calla Walsh (Calla) explains. ■ Rather than a radio link, the fiber-optic drones are physically tethered to their operator by an ultra-thin fiber-optic cable that stretches for up to 60km, transmitting video and data back to the pilot. ■ The Israeli occupation has been shocked by the introduction of these drones into the battlefield, and there is no indication the IOF had any foresight or intel on Hezbollah’s supply chain. ■ These drones were first deployed by Russia and Ukraine, but there’s no sign of direct Russian involvement, nor is there any need for it. Rather, Hezbollah is closely studying other warzones to innovate and adapt for their own battle against Israeli occupation, and information on fiber-optic FPVs is open-source. ■ Israeli media describes it as “a technological arms race, and although Israel is at the forefront of interception technology, there is currently no complete solution to the threat… the battlefield in Lebanon proves that sometimes a single thin thread can threaten even the most heavily armored technological systems… Israel possesses Arrow missiles and F-35 Lightning II aircraft, but it has failed to deal with cheap explosive drones in southern Lebanon.”

#WATCH | Nagpur, Maharashtra: Solar Defence and Aerospace Ltd. (SDAL) demonstrated "Bhargavastra", an indigenous, vehicle-mounted, multi-layered Counter-Swarm Drone System designed to provide affordable and highly effective protection against the rapidly growing threat of weaponised drones, loitering munitions and autonomous drone swarms. Developed entirely in India, Bhargavastra represents a major technological breakthrough in counter-drone warfare and reflects SDAL's vision of anticipating the future character of conflict well before drones emerged as one of the most decisive battlefield weapons. The system employs indigenously designed and developed unguided rockets and precision micro-missiles arranged in a multi-layer engagement architecture, providing a highly effective yet economical means of neutralising hostile UAVs. It has also been designed for seamless integration with the existing Command, Control, Communication and Intelligence (C4I) networks of the Indian Armed Forces, enabling its employment in future network-centric operations. Engineered specifically for Indian operational conditions, Bhargavastra is capable of deployment across deserts, plains and mountainous terrain up to 5,000 metres above mean sea level, providing reliable protection against aerial threats along the country's entire land borders. The Command-and-Control Centre incorporates an advanced C4I architecture integrating a radar capable of detecting UAVs up to 10 km, an Electro-Optical/Infrared (EO/IR) surveillance system and passive RF sensors. These sensors provide multi-layer target detection, tracking and classification, generating a comprehensive air situation picture and enabling operators to engage either individual drones or coordinated drone swarms. Unlike conventional soft-kill systems based on jamming or spoofing, Bhargavastra provides an effective hard-kill solution against autonomous drones that are immune to electronic countermeasures. A team of Indian Army visited SDAL, Nagpur on 24th July 2026 as part of Status review against a PSO under make-II The Bhargavastra weapon system, in its full configuration comprising a Command & Control Vehicle (CCV) equipped with Radar, EO/IR and RF detectors integrated with the C4I system, along with a launcher vehicle carrying all the launch tubes, was demonstrated. The SDAL team flew a swarm of drones, which was successfully detected by the Radar, EO/IR and RF detectors. The C4I system displayed the complete situational awareness picture and generated a drone attack alert. The launcher was then assigned the targets by the C4I system, and the complete firing sequence was successfully demonstrated to the visiting team. Actual rocket firing was not carried out within the plant premises due to safety considerations.
