"Send F-22s or F-35s" Yes, fat chance!! How in the hell does one slow down a jet to trail a UAV
at 50 MPH?
Time for Barrage balloons with monofilament fish netting strung between them.
I don't know what is the top speed of the drone that are in question, but in the recent year F-15 intercepted drones, using missiles or the main gun (drones from Syria, Lebanon and Iran).
