Abstract: In the context of the rapid development of drone technology and their increasingly frequent use in modern conflicts, the adaptation and use of anti-aircraft artillery against drones has become a priority for armed forces around the world. This article explores the possibilities of modifying and adapting anti-aircraft artillery systems, initial designed to combat large aircraft, so that they become effective against drones of different sizes, speeds and flight altitudes. Thus, the adaptation of classic anti-aircraft artillery systems is analyzed by improving the detection systems, by using projectiles with proximity warheads as well as the integration of advanced sensors and I.A. algorithms to detect, intercept and combat the drones. The article highlights the technical and tactical challenges associated with adapting these systems, including the limitations of conventional air defense systems against drones
