Has anyone developed any counter measures to these types of weapons?
Mirrors?
Aluminum Foil
A mirror.
A mirror thick enough to resist the heating of the laser would make the drone significantly heavier.
It doesn't take much as all it has to do is reflect most of the light
20kw dumped into aluminium foil will melt instantly.
Will it though? Most of it will get reflected
Depends on the wavelength of the laser and whether or not the mirror can actually reflect it.
