Driven by the technological advancements and military demands， unmanned aerial vehicle （UAV） swarm warfare has emerged as a disruptive new style of warfare that can change the rules of engagement. Fierce competition has unfolded among major military powers around "swarm technologies and tactics". The concept and advantages of UAV swarm operation are introduced， and the development of the swarm operation types abroad is summarized. Based on the shortages and restrictions of conventional military equipment， the anti-swarm operation and explores the development direction of anti-swarm equipment and technology is analyzed. A dynamic kill chain construction strategy is put forward to solve the problem of inadequate application of adequate anti-swarm approaches and theories， and achieve systematic confrontation by comprehensively using a variety of anti-UAV swarm equipment in the future，laying the solid foundation for the development of the systematized anti-swarm operation.
