In the recent conflict, Pakistan has made it clear that its military strategy will be based on drones. This is why India has started developing many anti-drone weapons. Now the Indian Army is going to focus on making its trucks anti-drone. The Indian Army has taken a big step to protect its military trucks from drone attacks. The Army is going to install a powerful net called ‘Cope cage’ on its trucks.
What is ‘Cope cage’?
‘Cope cage’ is a net made of metal, which is attached to the top of the truck. It stops and destroys bombs or weapons dropped by drones before they reach the truck directly. This technique has also been used in Ukraine, which has been successful. Overall, it can be said that this net will help prevent attacks from drones.

Pakistan’s track record is like this
According to reports, the Indian Army has more than 60,000 Stallion trucks. These carry soldiers and military equipment. Pakistan has attacked army trucks in the past, so this time India is already taking strict security measures.
This is how you will benefit from installing a Cope Cage
The Cope Cage is being designed and manufactured in India. Earlier, the army has installed Cope Cages in its tanks and other vehicles. Now Cope Cages will also be installed in trucks, so that the threat of drone attacks on the Indian army can be reduced to some extent. In fact, the upper part of trucks and armored vehicles is attacked by drones because this part is very vulnerable. But after installing the Cope Cage, this part will not come under direct attack.
