Ukrainian engineers are developing a new system of swarms of interceptor drones. The goal is to counter Russian attacks with drones and missiles. The technology will allow us to respond quickly to massive air threats.
Ukraine develops swarms of interceptor drones
Ukrainian experts are working on creating swarms of interceptor drones to protect against Russian attacks. This was reported by Business Insider citing sources in the Ukrainian defence sector. The swarms of drones will be able to operate autonomously and in a coordinated manner, which will allow them to effectively destroy enemy drones and missiles. The technology should increase the speed of response to massive air attacks.
Advantages of the new technology
According to sources, swarms of interceptor drones are capable:
- Detect and destroy targets in the air in real time;
- Work in difficult electronic warfare conditions;
- Interact with each other without operator intervention.
The use of drone swarms is expected to significantly reduce losses from Russian kamikaze and missile attacks.
Context.
Since the start of the full-scale invasion, Russia has regularly used drones and missiles to attack Ukrainian cities and infrastructure. Ukraine is actively investing in the development of its own air defence technologies. The development of swarms of interceptor drones is one of the priority areas to enhance airspace protection.
