Inspiring from the mentioned behaviors, different anti-predator systems for different types of drones are proposed and for each defense behavior, a well-defined mechanism is implemented. Introduction Drones are changing the world’s view of aviation. As such, there is an ever-growing need fordifferent types of drones with various capabilities for both civilian and military applications1. Militarysurveillance and border patrolling are common missions for drones. In these settings, however, dronesface many dangers including detection by radar, hacking, and tracing and attacking by predatorrockets2. These risks delay or even stop
