2. Use radio transmitters to jam the frequencies used to control the drone and disrupt the GPS signal. “The Mujahideen have had successful experiments using the Russian-made ‘Racal’ device.”

4. Use a group of skilled snipers to hunt and shoot down drones. Focus on the reconnaissance drones because they fly closer to the ground, often as low as 6 kilometers or less.
