Ukrainian defense-tech company General Chereshnya, which develops and manufactures drones for the military, announced that its new drone, General Chereshnya Bullet, has passed testing and is ready for mass production for the Defense Forces.
Bullet is designed to detect and neutralize enemy Shahed-type strike drones, the company said in a press release.
During testing, the developers managed to accelerate the Bullet to a speed of 309 km/h, which allows it to intercept fast and maneuvering targets. The drone is produced in several types: night, day and with a guidance system.
«We set ourselves a clear goal — to create an effective defense tool that will increase the ability of units to protect critical facilities and civilian infrastructure. „General Chereshnya Bullet“ is the result of cooperation between our best specialists and the military, who were able to implement a new UAV from concept to serial production in a timely manner,» said Yaroslav Hryshyn, founder of the company «General Chereshnya».
He added that the developers continue to improve the interceptor drone. Next, General Chereshnya plans to scale up to mass production of the Bullet.
Earlier, the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine codified and approved for operation in the Defense Forces the Ukrainian unmanned aviation complex " General Chereshnya AIR «. The Ministry of Defense noted that it can climb to a height at which some enemy drones were previously unreachable.
In early October, General Chereshnya also announced the start of training for interceptor drone pilots at its own academy.
