    Yeah, all the advances in facial recognition and person tracking can be directly applied to drone targeting. Just need to handle aiming a camera and correlating the camera’s position with the weapons system. The only part that might be difficult is the processing power AI requires. But the camera feed could be streamed to another machine that sends instructions back to reduce those power requirements, but then the drone would be prone to jamming.

      Drones are already prone to targetted EMF guns, regardless of if they require wireless communication, so I don’t feel that be a significant issue.

        Until they become hardened against them. That energy could be absorbed into the case, reflected at random, reflected but targeted, used to charge the battery or weapons systems, or the circuitry designed in such a way that it doesn’t resonate and just passes through harmlessly. If a drone doesn’t need to receive an outside signal, it can be encased in a Faraday cage.
