The article and this thread are about shaheed style drones.

As far as I know, stopping fiber optic fpv drones leans more on physical barriers that catch the fiber (eg road nets) rather than trying to detect and destroy the drone. It’s usually too late by the time you can hear or see a drone that size.

What does the asymptote looks like as defender and aggressor keep iterating. Who has the advantage? Can optical technology get so good at detecting (at least when it isn't raining) that eventually the balance shifts in favor of the defender?
