All major UK airports now have or will soon have military grade anti‑drone equipment, the government says.
It comes after the military were called in to help when drone sightings caused delays for around an hour at Heathrow on Tuesday.
Ministers in the UK are also working on ensuring the technology is installed at other critical infrastructure such as prisons, power stations and military sites.
