Hezbollah’s Fiber-Optic Drones: Low-Flying and Hard to Jam

This is an example

of a drone used by Hezbollah.

This is what we are dealing with. Now Hezbollah are using

different kinds of drones. Few of them with fiber optic.

These drones

weigh less than 2 kilograms. It flies low, it is very difficult to detect,

and by the time you hear it above your head, it's too late.

It can fly undetected

for tens of miles,

and all of a sudden, you see it above your head.

A thin cable is what makes this drone different. It does not rely on a radio signal.

It cannot be easily jammed, unfortunately. It gives the operator a live

video feed and direct control until impact. This is a modern warfare: cheap,

precise, deadly.
