A four-part series from This Is Not A Drill… Warfare is
evolving faster than ever in this dangerous world. Gavin Esler
explores a new generation of weapons and how they’ll fight – or
prevent – the next wars. This time: When missiles and drones
become cheaper and more widely-available, air defence becomes top
priority. What does it mean when ruinously expensive interceptors
like the Patriot go up against swarms of cheap, disposable Shahed
drones? Will future wars be decided on who has the deepest pockets
and fastest assembly lines? Can you build an Israeli-style Iron
Dome over a territory as big as the USA? Which areas get protected?
And does it all depend on the speed of the kill chain? Gavin Esler
