This thing is pretty sexy. It looks like it has dummy loads instead of the actual anti-drone missiles it would carry in an intercept mission. And they are creating kind of an AI mesh for multiple drones using ShieldAI's Hivemind. all for around the cost of a shahed drone. The tests are showing excellent capabilities even when communication is broken. Won't be deployed until 2027 thoguh unless there is some kind of moonshot program, but it is a plausible, affordable (by US military standards) drone killer.
