Prof. Fricke in an interview with MDR about the increasing number of drone sightings at airports
Drone sightings are increasingly paralyzing air traffic. In an interview with MDR, Prof. Hartmut Fricke explains why many of these flights take place in a targeted manner, what technical options are available to defend against them and why he considers larger protection zones around airports to be essential. He also talks about what Germany can learn from Ukraine and why security and social commitment should not be opposites.
