Shawn Ryan Unveils AI Drone-Killing Weapon at His Ranch
Andy Lowery joins Shawn Ryan for an outdoor demo of cutting-edge defense technology, showcasing the Leonidas autonomous ground vehicle and its role in modern battlefield protection. Built through a collaboration between Epirus, General Dynamics Land Systems, and Kodiak Defense, this mobile system integrates advanced radar, autonomous navigation, and directed energy capabilities to detect, track, and neutralize drone threats in real time. The conversation breaks down how the platform creates a focused electromagnetic field to disable electronics, the importance of mobility in modern warfare, and how systems like this are shaping the future of base and infrastructure defense. From autonomous deployment to 360-degree situational awareness, this is a firsthand look at next-generation counter-drone technology in action.

This is not serious, the shielded drones with anti-microwave and anti-light coating will make a quick work out of it, this thingy is 5 years behind the modern technology.
Exposed cables for power, hmmm, an rpg could cut those silly wires, in the wheel well, not autonomous anymore :(_~~~~
And NO Zelensky your not getting one. Make your own!
I thought drones are running on fiber optic now. Doesn’t that make this yesterday’s technology?
Having a background and understanding of some of this, I would have had a couple of additional questions for him, but great video! I’m excited about the technology as well. Are they hiring?
So guessing the Ranch will now have at least one of these on the property?
Great video, thanks for sharing with us Shawn!
Vapor ware
“10 kilometers away, here come some hostile drones” that have been hugging the ground at 600 miles an hour, in a swarm… you have 37 seconds to react.
Edit – “form a wall or shield”… so the drones program to split the swarm into multiple groups attacking from multpiple angels.
Send it to an Ukraine and see if it works 🤷♂️🤷♂️ as we say in the infantry…put your money where your mouth is 🙄🙄 we carried frequency jammers in Northern Ireland for remote IED’s. Never had anything but great soldiering skills for manual detonating bombs.
Damn, Kodiak has come a long way from making film 😉😉
It must be in compliance with the FCC..
And may not cause interference with any other device.
🤣
Oh come on we’ve had this technology for a long time it’s just a signal jammer for fuck sakes..
Yay let’s all flip out over a frequency booster..
🤣
Haha microwave goes BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
I wonder if this thing would cook a human on continuous pump lol😅😂
Easy monthly payments
That thing is about as shielded as a boot…
🤣🤣🤣🤣
If we are seeing it this is old Tek. Prob way more advanced things we are not allowed access to
Nice ad, where do I buy?
Using Wyamo to describe autonomy isn’t appropriate given that they are using Indians to help guide the self driving car from India. If anything, Tesla is the number one leader in self driving.
So WW3 is drone, autonomous vehicle, and radio frequency butchery of men, women, and children. And we are going to do it for Israel. Kinda far from my home not gonna lie. Maybe Cole Allen had the right idea.
You sit and wonder why they don’t invent something like this and then you realize they probably already are working on it or have. And then you see it. Warfare got pretty terrifying the last couple years so this is necessary.
Unasked questions. Is it effective against manned aircraft? Can manned aircraft be shielded against it?
Full situational awareness. Just for the people that didn’t know😂😂😂😂
lead underwear and helmet?
Where is Shawns ranch ???
EMP Weapon
Raytheon came up with something similar years ago for crowd control years ago. it wasn’t focused, but it used microwaves. dropped people instantly. like your skin was boiling.
Optic fiber cable communication on drones makes this obsolete before this is even produced. Hope he made his tax payer funded paycheck, and we find something that’ll actually work. Dumbasses like this will get soldiers killed.
We just be buildin’ shit. God bless America!
This is the American version of arabs strapping literally anything to the back of a Toyota truck 😂. Not knocking it or the work gone into it lol, it’s just all I can think of watching this thing
thing is going to microwave so many birds
You are still not protected from optic cable drones
4 radars, 2 star link dishes. 1 missile takes it out
Does it work against fiberoptic drones?
Military drones have already been hardened against a lot of electronic‑warfare attacks. Shielding and counter‑shielding is an ongoing arms race, and advances in materials, electronics, and autonomy are moving fast.
Anything being publicly demonstrated is always the safe, non‑sensitive version, the real cutting‑edge work is never shown openly.
Countries already operate drones with varying levels of autonomy, which means that even if communications are jammed, some systems can still follow pre‑programmed tasks depending on their design.
So selling a “microwave van” as a universal drone‑killer ignores the fact that adversaries are constantly adapting their own tech too.
We need this tech hand-held 😬👍
I need one
For a guy who’s got an electronic warfare background, he sure isn’t nerdy enough to geek out on this stuff. I was surprised when I looked him up. For his pedigree, I was expecting more visible knowledge/passion for the tech like Ryan Montgomery. Honestly sounded like a sales brochure.
Ukraine needs the bullfrog system on trucks and other vehicles to shoot drones down shaw check it out and see if theyd like to come do a video
its all fun and games until the drones operate on a random jitter frequency that makes this completely useless.
I will keep praying you stop lying to yourself and truly find Jesus Shawn 😢
Would be nice if they worked this hard to save the planet
Dangerous piece of kit!
What does it take to power that I’ve heard they r huge on consuming power does it have to be tied to a A/C power to operate
“Engagement at 2 kilometers….” thats 2 kilometers too close
Can Leonidus take down multiple Shahed drones simultaneously?
You sold out. Cenk Uygur and his little nephew Hassan are the biggest destroyers of America.
My GD stocks are going up
So if they have figured out a way to protect the unit from its own Frequency wave, it’s not gonna be too much longer before drones have that capability as well because somebody will leak or steal the technology. Which means this Has a limited service life. Which is probably why he’s able to showcase this on a YouTube channel because the military has not made the move to purchase it.
Where can I find this hoodie sports jacket Shawn is wearing?
Did you try it on a fiber optic drone ???? Lol 😅
