This is a good thing to have. I do not trust drones as their intelligence is limited to their operators and they are not 'human'. The Chinese laser canon based on a Chinese Academy of Engineering Physics can shoot down the drones but their performance is limited, it appears, "It is effective up to a maximum altitude of 500 metres and against aircraft flying at up to 50 metres per second (112 mph). This should reduce drone related terrorism to a great extent.
This vehicle mounted laser canon seems to have a high percentage of hits for low-flying drones compared to aircraft/helicopter mounted lasers.
