By: Rassler, DonMaterial type: ArticleArticleDescription: Recurso onlineSubject(s): Aviones no tripulados | Terrorismo internacional | Al-Qaeda | Estado Islámico | Terrorismo -- PrevenciónOnline resources: Click here to access online In: CTC Sentinel CTC Sentinel . -- Vol. 10 Issue 1 (Jan. 2017) p. 23-27Summary: Armed military-grade drones have been a central tool for the United States to counter the threat posed by al-Qa`ida and the Islamic State. It is therefore not surprising that the West’s use of drones has been a subject of intense interest for these groups and their supporters online. Indeed, the jihadi community for years has sought ways to disrupt and limit the effectiveness of armed drones and to deploy its own drones in offensive ways. As the United States and other countries begin to deploy counter drone solutions to mitigate the jihadis’ offensive drone threat, it would be wise to game out creative and inexpensive ways to defeat countermeasures being deployed by the West so the jihadis’ response to those methods can be anticipated and pre-empted.
