This paper explores the growing threat posed by swarm drones (UAVs) and the countermeasures being developed to address these risks. Drones, initially used in military operations, have proliferated across various sectors, from military to civilian applications, due to advances in technology, affordability, and miniaturization. Their dual-use nature, serving both legitimate and malicious purposes, presents significant security challenges. Militarily, drones have evolved from reconnaissance tools to weapons used by both state and non-state actors, including terrorist groups, to conduct asymmetric warfare and targeted attacks on critical infrastructure. This paper explores how AI can be utilized to counter drone swarms, the technologies involved, and the future of AI-driven defence systems. The rise of autonomous drones and drone swarms powered by artificial intelligence presents a new frontier of challenges in warfare and security. In response, counter-drone technologies (C-UAV) have been developed, including AI Technologies for Drone Swarm Defence. For many countries which face increasing drone threats along its borders, robust counter-drone strategies are essential. Despite its potential, AI-driven drone defence faces challenges. Addressing these obstacles is crucial in ensuring reliable and effective AI-driven defence systems. The paper also discusses the challenges of legal, ethical, and operational concerns. Governments and defence agencies must invest in AI-driven solutions to stay ahead of evolving threats. Meanwhile, the future holds immense potential with quantum AI, swarm warfare, directed energy weapons, and 6G integration.
