Fiber optic drones are a relatively new class of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) that differ significantly from traditional drones in terms of their communication technology. Instead of relying on radio frequency (RF) signals, which can be disrupted by jamming or interference, fiber optic drones use a physical tether made from fiber optic cables. This connection allows them to send and receive data through a direct, high-bandwidth link to the ground control station. This innovation offers several key advantages, making fiber optic drones a game-changer in military operations where traditional communication systems might fail. Fiber optic drones immunity to electronic warfare jamming and their ability to transmit high-quality video feeds. These drones use a fiber optic cable to transmit video and control signals, offering advantages over radio-based drones in areas where electronic jamming is prevalent. The fiber optic cable provides a clear and stable video feed, even over long distances, enhancing situational awareness and precision targeting.
