Raytheon’s Coyote Block 3 Non-Kinetic (NK) effector just proved it can take on entire drone swarms at once.

In a recent US Army demo, the counter-drone system showed off its ability to intercept and neutralize drones without a single explosion.

This approach minimizes collateral damage and allows the effector to be recalled or redeployed for follow-on engagements.
