A drone comprises a plurality of barrels pointed symmetrically around a center point on the drone. The barrels are loaded with projectiles that are each attached to a tensile countermeasure. The tensile countermeasure is loaded into an aerodynamic fairing that is then attached to the drone. The drone takes-off and transitions to high-speed flight. While flying at high speed, the aerodynamic fairing is ejected from the drone, releasing the tensile countermeasure stored inside. Once released from storage in the aerodynamic fairing, the tensile countermeasure remains attached to the drone through the projectiles still lodged in the barrels, trailing behind the drone in the open air. The drone continues to maintain high speed flight until it reaches the desired trigger location, at which time the projectiles are ejected from the barrels causing the countermeasure to expand at the desired target location.
