Abstract

Apparatuses, systems, and methods are disclosed for drone interdiction. A projectile (106) is capable of being launched to intercept a drone. The projectile (106) may include a set of tethers (108) that deploy from the projectile (106) for securing the drone. The projectile (106) may include a recovery device (114) that deploys from the projectile (106) for controlling a descent of the drone.
