New role of interceptors in the zone air defense On a thematic session dedicated to the use of interceptor drones, Denis Manturov stated that these systems must occupy a clear place in the zone-objective air defense system. 'It is important for us to be one step ahead of our opponents.'
Consensus
- Denis Manturov addressed the issue of drone interceptors on July 17.
- The meeting focused on integrating drone interceptors into Russia's zone-object air defense system.
- There is a need to optimize production costs for serial drones.
- Unification of components and parts for drone interceptors was emphasized.
- Improvement of coordination between drone interceptors and detection, targeting, and command systems was required.
- Artificial intelligence will be used in processing data for air defense operations.
- The goal is to enhance speed, maneuverability, autonomy, accuracy of guidance, and group operation capabilities.
Points of divergence
- Manturov emphasized the need to develop approaches for mass production of models with different deployment methods—both hand-launched in mobile groups and from air defense system launchers. — fontanka
- Vasily Shpak stated that it is important to collect and process all types of data (acoustic, thermal, optical) to detect Ukrainian drones. — kommersant
