A new interceptor capable of reaching speeds of up to 270 kilometers (168 miles) per hour is being positioned as the UK’s last line of defense against short-range, Class 1 drone threats.
The AeroStrike system, developed by Drone Defence, provides point-defense coverage for protecting critical sites, convoys, and forward-deployed units that require a fast-reacting effector.
The interceptor can remain airborne for up to 10 minutes within a 13-kilometer (8-mile) operating range, enabling rapid response to time-sensitive threats and mid-air repositioning.
