Beens months I’m saying a simple flame thrower should easily melt the wires.
Now let’s add a hat of flamethrower to tanks.-
Cuts fibre/messes with fibre.

Drone goes straight forward into the tank.

BOUM. Profit.

You would have to cut the fiber or hope the pulsed laser melts it.
90% of the physics aside, this theory is like saying that crossing flashlight beams would cause interference. This is also ignoring the density difference between the fiber and the air.
All things considered, I think we are looking at the new Russian wunderwaffe. Coming to a T-14 near you.
i worked with fibers before and its 100% possible to inject enough light into a fiber to cause errors at the Rx without melting the fiber, flash lights are not coherent light and are not focused enough for that (also not pulsed)
Into raw unshielded fibers tho probably, right?
With no computer error correction.
That’s what they’re using for the drones, tho.
why tho? a little bit of paint won’t be too much weight, right?
Oh i see lol
I thought that was only really an issue if the fiber was damaged in any way. (It would create a point where the external light could refract into the core) Then again, there isn’t going to be a sheath on that cable and its not exactly a sterile environment.
Meh, I’m an idiot and that’s OK!
ok so polarize the light in the fiber, gg no interference
Interesting, good to know! I would have thought they’d be pretty good at not scattering anything.
Fluorescence is a thing.
The problem here (despite using a giant laser on the least effective way possible) is that any kind of error correction can deal with your pulsing interference, and you are letting the drone get a bit too close.
But by harnessing disco ball technology, we can make this a multidirectional field defense.
