The Armed Forces of Ukraine reported a new means to combat the Shaheds.


Ukrainian defenders are using a new means to intercept Shahed strike drones
With the help of the latest means, Ukrainian defenders are successfully intercepting Shahed strike drones. The cost of this means is three times cheaper than the cost of the 'Shaheds'. According to military sources, the cost of the enemy's kamikaze drones exceeds $150,000. This innovative solution helps to enhance the effectiveness of Ukraine's Defense Forces and protect the lives of Ukrainians.
The operators of the Darknode unit of the Nemesis regiment have already destroyed over 10 Russian Shahed-136/131 drones using this means. Official news about activities and results in this direction will be announced later.
Ukraine successfully tested a new long-range drone
Ukraine has successfully tested a new long-range drone that can cover a distance of 3,000 km. In the future, the military plans to purchase about 4.5 million domestically produced FPV drones by 2025. Ukrainian drone manufacturers, who are increasing the share of local production, will gain advantages in state procurements.
Upgrading the weapons of the Ukrainian army
The Ukrainian army is constantly improving its armament as it faces challenges on the front. One such innovation is the 'wired' drone, which proves to be an effective solution against enemy electronic warfare systems.
