The scenario these address aren't two nation states going to war, one with eagles and the other with drones. The scenario is the once-per-decade terrorist attack, in which case losing an eagle or two to mitigate the attack is worthwhile.

That's the same scenario I'm talking about. Overpowering the input signals is a proven, scalable defense that can be easily deployed to police forces, stadiums, national monuments across the world and for minimal cost. You simply will not be able to do that with a highly trained eagle.
