Again drones above Denmark, it is so strange they are not shooting them down, or at least one....🤔
Even if they don't pose a threat you have to sent a signal to the people that control them or collect evidence from the wreckage. Is there no air defence?
The drones don't drop bombs but cause damage and inflict costs, besides the psychological aspects.

Students develop novel multi-metal 3D printing process
Students at ETH Zurich have developed a laser powder bed fusion machine that follows a circular tool path to print round components, which allows the processing of multiple metals at once. The system significantly reduces manufacturing time and opens up new possibilities for aerospace and industry. ETH has filed a patent application for the machine, and the results are published in the CIRP Annals.
