YouTube Description
as posted by the channelAs the United States continues to face Iranian Shahed drones along with ballistic missiles in the Middle East, Ukraine is presenting its homegrown anti-drone drones that cost as little as $1,000 each.
More than that, Ukraine also offers deep knowledge on what it takes to detect and intercept Shaheds and similar threats with cheaper and more easily deployed weapons.
In this video, we talk about the Skyfall P-1 Sun and General Cherry Bullet drones, the systems that keep them and others on target, as well as how Ukraine is able to "export" weapons as it fights Russia.
