“The biggest challenge with these drones is that they can fly very low and quite fast, and since they are relatively smooth objects it’s more difficult to detect them with traditional radars,” Lior Segal, CEO of ThirdEye Systems, told The Media Line. “This attack [in Abu Dhabi] happened from a very long distance – hundreds of kilometers – so it’s a very challenging object to detect. It’s a very simple but very effective weapon.”
