“At the cost of a software upgrade . . . single-digit thousands of dollars . . . you can add this capability to a radio they’re already carrying,”
So $9,999 to enable this upgrade PER DEVICE.

Erm… radio jamming has been a concern for quite a while already. This has been combatted with the use of thin fiber-optic cables laid out behind the drones to connect them directly to their operators.

Just one example of this: https://www.atlanticcouncil.org/blogs/ukrainealert/fiber-optics-drones-have-emerged-as-critical-kit-for-both-russia-and-ukraine/
So you’re saying this is an upgrade that costs several thousand dollars per device, to combat a threat that is already unlikely?
What kind of masturbatory marketing fluff article is this?
I don’t think my Beofeng radio is transmitting on 2.4ghz anytime soon
