An attack drone with attached net, part of the counter-unmanned aerial system developed by the team from Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio, intercepts a DJI S1000 drone with its net during the 2016 Air Force Research Laboratory Commanders Challenge at the Nevada National Security Site, Las Vegas, NV., Dec. 13, 2016. Teams were given six months to develop a complete counter-unmanned aerial system to aid in base defense. In addition to the attack drone, Wright-Patterson's system uses a camera and laser range finder to detect UAS devices.
