- Russia is 'betting primarily' on jet-powered Shahed drones, pivoting from older models: Ukraine's navy
Ukraine's navy reports Russia is increasingly using jet-powered Shahed drones, such as Geran-3 and Geran-4, while reducing reliance on older models. These faster drones challenge Ukraine's interceptor capabilities, though some manufacturers claim improved speeds for their defense systems. Ukraine also faces significant hurdles in countering Russian ballistic missiles due to a lack of advanced interceptors.
- Ukraine's drone hunters are evolving. The next generation is getting faster.
Ukrainian defense companies are developing faster interceptor drones to counter Russian jet-powered attack drones like the Geran-4 and Geran-5. Wild Hornets and Skyfall are testing upgraded models, such as the 'Sting 2' and enhanced P1-Sun, to match the speed and maneuverability of Russian jet drones.
