Ukrainian and Russian Anti-drone Systems and ECCM

Sector type APS are poorly siuted for drone defense , as there is no magazine depth to the charges Arena M ,maybe has 2 APS charges for one sector then it needs a reload , tanks are routinely being attacked with dozens of FPV drones.
 
I heard from video that it took 15-20 fpv drones to disable the tank. If anything they need to increase the capacity for projectiles or figure out a way for a loader to reload projectile magazines into the tank.
 
Zveroboy air defence system, armed with Kraken FPV interceptor drones.

Kalashnikov claims that Zveroboy is designed to provide round-the-clock protection of facilities against reconnaissance and strike drones.

"The system consists of an automated workstation at the ground control station, an optical targeting system, three launch containers, a digital repeater, a technical compartment with a distribution panel and switching unit, a compass on a telescopic pole, and a radar system," the company said.

The system's primary means of engagement are high-speed, multirotor Kraken FPV drones with a specialised warhead. Each of the three launch containers holds three interceptors, giving the system a total of nine such drones.

The Kraken drones can be used during the day and at night. The night-time Kraken-N version is additionally equipped with a thermal imaging camera.

Do you have idea why the Volnorez does not cover the 2.4 and 5.7 GHz ISM bands, which are used by COTS drones, eg. made by DJI, Autel, Iflight, etc.?
I haven’t seen this answered.

If you look at the frequencies, they are in khz or MHz, very low. 5.7 GHz is known for being an almost less then LOS frequency that does not have great range, 2.4 GHz is longer range but still won’t have the ability to go as far at a certain strength as lower frequencies.

The jammer says it is 6 GHz, so it can do it, it’s just not a frequency used by long range military drones.
