Air Force 1st Lt. Justin Kellett, from Hanscom Air Force Base, Ma., monitors his teams counter unmanned aerial system during the 2016 Air Force Research Laboratory Commanders Challenge at the Nevada National Security Site, Las Vegas, NV., Dec. 11, 2016. Teams were given six months to develop counter unmanned aerial systems to aid in base defenses. Hanscom's solution is a layered detect and defeat system which used radar, jamming devices and a TART S6 kill bot drone which fires a net projectile around unauthorized unmanned aerial systems.
