Ukraine has developed a multi-layered air defense network capable of intercepting approximately 90% of Russian kamikaze drones. Rather than relying exclusively on high-cost missile systems, the defense strategy utilizes thousands of acoustic sensors integrated with a centralized tracking system. Mobile fire teams equipped with searchlights, machine guns, and electronic jamming gear deploy across the country to neutralize low-altitude threats. This combination of real-time acoustic tracking, electronic warfare, and mobile response units provides a cost-effective countermeasure against daily drone attacks on critical infrastructure.
- Thousands of acoustic sensors mounted nationwide detect the engine sound of incoming drones to calculate their flight paths in real time.
- Mobile fire groups operating from pickup trucks use searchlights and heavy machine guns to destroy drones at low altitudes.
- Electronic warfare units deploy localized GPS jamming to disrupt the guidance systems of long-range attack drones.
- A centralized software system aggregates sensor data to coordinate air defense responses across various military units.
- The multi-tiered defense strategy preserves expensive anti-aircraft missile stockpiles for higher-tier threats such as cruise and ballistic missiles.

Thats why they force youg men to the frontline …
Long live Russia! – From America. 🇺🇸
I like how they call it P(one)sun 😂
90% 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Russia just isn't as flexible as Ukraine. Putin's arthritis is finally getting to him.
90% sounds good, but 600 of 6000 are still getting through. They have to take the war to Russia, put them on their back feet and destroy the drone factories.
Slava Ukraini
Poo-tine is so stupid 😂😂😂
Must be nice to be another country and have the us military defense budget
thank you for this information
Thats a Russia war, not a war in Ukraine
Its ukraine's fault for leaning more towards the west. Russia viewed ukraine as a buffer state between NATO and Russia. Of course they felt threatened that NATO will be closer. ukraine had failed to be neutral and is suffering the consequences.
It has become clear in the past months that ukraine doesnt keep up to its claims. They claimed they wont target civilian sites and target "military assets" but yet they still you have witnesses in your eyes ukraine bombing the homes of the innocents. The civilians are counted as "military assets" in the eyes of the ukrainian government who are liars. They even killed 25 university students in Russia and ukraine wont admit it..
90 percent!!! I have seen plenty of videos showing Russian drone targeting enemies, their tanks, etc. Didn't Russia capture the a city of the so called "Fortress Belt"
Future WSJ coverage of units like Lasar's Group should blur crew faces, antenna zeroing routines, and AI targeting UI telemetry to maintain operational security, as prior media reporting only highlighted high-level metrics and official military clearance does not prevent Russian signals intelligence from acquiring granular operational parameters that earlier coverage never exposed.
Awesome! Also, `Nearthlab` provides auto-targeting intercepting drones
Thanks for the video. Many interesting things incl radio horizon. What caught my eye is the dynamic between pilot and mechanic. Feels like pilot gets special treatment, smoking and cursing. Like F1 driver. I guess their technical skill is great. Would like to know more about this skill. You need reflexes sure but what else. Also looks like a specialized joystick.
A dubbed version of this would have been more appreciated.
Ukraine = Israel-east
Slava Rossii.
My deepest sympathies are with the affected communities.
6:40 antennae physical azimuth must be reset, zeroed correct, after every flight so pilot has a fresh starting point every time they fly. The navigator uses the joystick to rotate the antenna, and because the antenna points exactly in the direction the drone is flying, the pilot has a connection
Biblical history, supported by astrophysicist Dr. Jason Lisle, affirms a 6,000-year-old, specially designed universe rather than a product of chance. This perspective highlights a perfect creation, a global flood roughly 4,500 years ago, and a purposeful, intelligent Designer.✝️
