No one talks about the potential for OUR enemies to use them on us. What (besides time and resources) is stopping our enemies from using them on us? Ask most Americans and I'd wager they'd have no problem with drones. -turn the tables though....
Have we developed anti-drone defences? Seems like we have potentially opened a Pandoras box here. Interesting read.
We can disrupt just about any form of broadcast communication that exists by aerial means.
I think that America is safe from drones that are remotely piloted for mean time.
Individual combat units far from aerial support might be vulnerable, and probably the all forces are vulnerable until there is a threat that merits deploying needed weapon systems to do the disruption.
Have we developed anti-drone defences?
Drones need to broadcast a signal. If you could find that signal and then broadcast on it, it should make them sad. This piqued my interest: "There are some 4,800 Ravens in operation in the Army, although plenty get lost." More on this later. I guess we have to wait.

The majority are used for tactical purposes (spying) and aren't weaponized. These are the kind that are available for sale to foreign powers at our local military industrial complex store.
