Big article in the Wall Street Journal (online edition) today about several defense companies developing anti drone defensive weapon systems for our hobby drones. In the related video, they shoot down a Phantom with a laser...melts the core of it and goes down in flames. They claim they can hit our birds at 500M. They primarily mention European countries tackling the problem but do mention one US company.
Here is the link, but you probably have to be a subscriber to read the story. I could probably cut and paste if people are interested in reading.
