UAV- The Size of A Cigarette For the Army

Researchers in Oklahoma State University are working on an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle which could be the size of a cigarette. It uses plasma thrusters which doesn't have any moving parts.
"What we want the infantrymen to be able to do is pull a pack of six or so out of their pocket and have them ready for use," Jamey Jacob, an associate professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering told the Daily.
This aircraft is capable of doing surveillance of hostile areas, and would be a significant improvement to the surveillance capabilities today. What are the precautions against these tiny vehicles, I would say “Put up some mosquito nets”.
