China's Hurricane 3000: A New Counter-Drone Weapon

China's Hurricane 3000: A New Counter-Drone Weapon

China has developed a new weapon called the Hurricane 3000 to stop groups of drones.

It uses special waves to disable the drones' electronics.

The weapon is mounted on a truck and can work alone or with other defence systems.

It's still being tested but could be used soon.

The US has a similar weapon, but China's has a longer range.

This new weapon is important because drones are becoming a big part of modern warfare, and traditional weapons like missiles are expensive and not as effective against many drones at once.
