Russia develops drone interceptor againt UAV world premiere motivated by war doctrine.


Russian experts have recently developed a disposable kamikaze drone specifically designed to intercept enemy drones. This new system, currently in the testing phase, promises to revolutionize aerial defense strategies. A representative of Red Line, the company behind this innovation, shared exclusive details about this technology, which is expected to reduce the threat of enemy drones.

The drone, called "Vogan-9SP," is designed to intercept enemy drones and eliminate them by detonating its warhead. To catch and intercept an enemy drone, the Vogan-9SP is equipped with everything it needs: radar targeting, its own guidance system, and a high speed of up to 200 km/h. The drone operates in conjunction with a radar and laser system that "illuminates" the target. It is launched from a special ramp at a 45-degree angle.

Unlike more conventional drones of similar small size, which take off and land vertically, the Vogan uses a reusable catapult system. The drone is autonomous in terms of flight and targeting; however, at the critical moment, only a human operator can decide whether to strike. Indeed, the drone uses FPV technology, meaning an operator follows its progress until the target is destroyed.

As noted by the company, while the Vogan-9SP is currently being tested, it is possible it might also be tested in the Northwest zone. There is no official information on this, but some sources familiar with the conflict coverage indicate the presence of interceptor drones in the northwest of the frontline. Meanwhile, the company is developing an improved version of the drone with a speed increased to 250 km/h.

The general, Chief of Staff of the French Army, spoke about the improving drone shield. Today, this idea is becoming a reality with these interceptor drones, paving the way for a new form of aerial combat.
