  "textContent": "China has significantly reduced the cost of operating microwave anti-drone systems to just a few yuan per shot. The system, designed for urban police forces, was developed by the state-owned 081 Electronics Group, and offers a low-cost solution to neutralize drone threats.\nHow the System Works\n\nThe new anti-drone system combines radar and electro-optical detection with a large flat antenna mounted on an eight-wheeled vehicle. It can either \"softly\" jam drones or \"hard disable\" them using high-power microwaves that overheat and destroy microchips and metal components, rendering the drones inoperable.\n\"The cost is extremely low. Just a few dozen yuan can achieve effects that previously required hundreds of thousands, often ineffectively,”\n\n— Xun Godun, engineer at 081 Electronics Group",
