💥 Unmanned Systems Forces destroyed 100 Shaheds using interceptor drones
As of today, the Darknode unit of the 412th Nemesis Regiment of the USF has intercepted 100 enemy strike UAVs, including:
🔻 76 units of Shahed‑136 — Iranian-made kamikaze drones;
🔻 24 units of “Gerber” — a simplified modification of the Shahed-136, manufactured in the territory of the Russian Federation.
For the first time in the history of modern warfare, long-range strike UAVs are being systematically intercepted by other unmanned aerial vehicles.
This approach demonstrates high cost-effectiveness: the cost of an air defense missile can reach $1 million, while an interceptor drone costs around $5,000.
The Unmanned Systems Forces are actively scaling this capability to compensate for the shortage of traditional air defense assets and to strengthen the protection of Ukrainian cities from terrorist attacks by the Russian Federation.
🇺🇦 USF: One step ahead!
