2016 Anti-drone defenses will boom.

I am surprised too that NATO troops don't use smaller drones to check for snipers and ambushes.

I see tiny surveillance drones on every helmet, with HUD controls. Look into every room before entering; see what's coming up around every bend. And land back on the helmet to recharge! Like the SAW, need one on every team.

They're visible and loud. And unless you're using something with decent radio/battery range, you're still in the visual / shooting range.
