That promise is strategically important, but it is often described too narrowly. A high-power microwave effect is not the whole counter-UAS architecture. It is only one possible response layer inside a much larger chain of detection, identification, decision, and control.</p> <p>For that reason, the most useful way to discuss high-power microwave systems is not as isolated response technology, but as one node inside a broader sensing and command system.</p>
