Reminder: Put Your Name on a STING Interceptor Takedown Screen 🐝 Our fundraiser for the 1020th Anti-Aircraft Missile Regiment is in full swing! We continue to support the defenders who clear our skies using STING interceptors. Today, we’re sharing a fresh look at the action. In this video, an interceptor with the craft name Brutus the Cat tracks down and eliminates an enemy target. This is exactly what the "takedown screen" looks like — and your name can be there next. How to get your personalized interception video: 👉 Donate $500 or more: 👉 Email us: Send a screenshot of your donation and the name you want featured (up to 15 characters) to community@wildhornets.com. 👉 Receive your video: Get the footage of a Shahed or Gerbera being downed with your name on the operator’s screen. Every contribution matters. Even $1, $5, or $10 make a huge difference in keeping this mission going. If you donate a smaller amount, feel free to drop a screenshot in the replies to inspire others! All funds are used for equipment, vehicles, and the technical needs of the 1020th Regiment. Join the hunt. Let's protect the skies together! 🇺🇦

An absolute world record — a pilot took down a Shahed with interceptor STING at a distance of 500 km Using Hornet Vision Ctrl technology, Roman “Hulk” from the BULAVA unit downed two Shaheds located 500 km away ❗️ This is the first time in the world someone has flown that far remotely — and actually scored intercepts. Not one, but two Shaheds ❤️‍🔥 So when we say: more to come — we mean it. More to come 🐝

STING launched from an An-28 aircraft during a Shahed interception mission. We’ve been part of this experiment for over six months now. This isn’t a one-off — there are already several projects where STING is deployed from different platforms, both maritime and airborne. STING operates across all domains: water, land, and air.

A modernized Shahed shot down by defenders of the 1020th Anti-Aircraft Missile and Artillery Regiment. Take a close look at the antenna. The enemy is constantly upgrading its UAVs to ensure they reach their targets. But thanks to one of the best interceptor crews, that plan failed.

Interceptor STING takes down another jet-powered Shahed 🚀 Operators of the 17th Special Purpose Center destroyed a Shahed equipped with a jet engine, which reduces air defense reaction time and makes it harder to intercept. However, our defenders have proven more than once — such targets can be taken down with interceptor STING.

STING regularly takes down jet-powered Shaheds 💥 These Shaheds differ from conventional ones by having a jet engine, which gives them higher speed and longer range. This significantly reduces reaction time, but the skill of the pilots and the STING interceptors still make it possible to destroy even these drones.

Interception of a jet-powered Shahed carrying an R-60 air-to-air missile 🔥 The enemy is increasingly using UAVs as universal platforms for multiple roles. Defenders of the 1020th Anti-Aircraft Missile Regiment put a stop to this, engaging the target with an interceptor STING.
