The economics have been favorable to attackers for a while. Maybe precision systems like this can help to shift things in favor of the defenders.

Lasers need a straight path through clean air. Israel is a favorable location because Tel Aviv gets 200 or so sunny days a year, but if there are clouds this won’t work or will have to fire at the last moment.

As for drones, they’ll fly lower to the ground to reduce the line of sight.
