The Telegraph published an article about the development of a Ukrainian drone designed to intercept Iranian Shahed-136 drones.<\/p>\n
The main points of the article:<\/p>\n
\u25ab\ufe0f The new drone, called Sting, is capable of intercepting Shaheds, flying at speeds of over 160 km\/h and at an altitude of about 3 km.
\n\u25ab\ufe0f The drone will be controlled by an operator using VR goggles and will have an artificial intelligence targeting system.
\n\u25ab\ufe0f russia produces more than 6,000 Shahed drones per year, launching 30 to 80 of them daily towards Ukraine, which poses a significant challenge to Ukrainian air defense.
\n\u25ab\ufe0f The cost of Sting is significantly lower than that of Shahed drones.
\n\u25ab\ufe0f The use of the new drones will allow Ukraine to conserve its stockpile of air-defence missiles.<\/p>\n
The development of these drones is another step towards strengthening Ukraine’s defense capabilities and increasing its technological advantage in a prolonged war.<\/p>\n
The Center has previously reported on the development of the Ukrainian military-industrial complex, in particular on the success of long-range UAVs that strike military targets in russia, which limits russia’s ability to attack Ukraine.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
