Russia is increasingly deploying jet-powered drones with characteristics approaching those of cruise missiles, Ukrainian Air Force spokesperson Yurii Ihnat said. Their speed can reach 600 km/h, while Ukrainian interceptor drones reach about 300 km/h, leaving mobile fire groups and heavy machine guns largely ineffective. Ihnat said these targets require anti-aircraft or air-launched missiles, though Ukrainian manufacturers are improving interceptor drones. #Ukraine

Thanks to Ukrainian pilots, dozens of jet-powered Shaheds have already been intercepted by interceptor STING drones 🚀 However, russia plans to increase the share of jet-powered Shaheds to 50% of all Shahed deployments. This marks another shift in enemy tactics and a new challenge for Ukraine’s air defense. Wild Hornets, together with Ukrainian servicemen, is already working on the solution — STING 2.0. Stay tuned. More to come 😉

🔥 Ukraine shoots down Russian “Geran-3” drones with a new interceptor — first footage The debut of the Ukrainian-made Sting drone proved to be highly successful. On November 30, the Stings destroyed several Russian jet-powered “Geran-3” drones. These drones are faster than the regular “Geran” models and more maneuverable, designed to break through air defenses. Russia has been using “Geran-3” in strike packages since the summer of 2025. Now Ukraine has a tool capable of disrupting this tactic.

Ukrainian interceptor drones are now capable of autonomously shooting down Russian Shahed drones. A Brave1 developer has created a technology that automates 95% of the interception process - from launch to target destruction. The system has successfully undergone combat testing in Kharkiv region. The operator monitors targets in real time, selects a target, and authorizes the strike. The system then independently guides the drone to the target, autonomously identifies it, and carries out the interception. "Autonomy is one of the key directions in the development of modern air defense. Such technologies make it possible to respond more quickly to massive attacks and protect Ukrainian cities more effectively," said Ukrainian Defense Minister Mykhailo Fedorov Mykhailo Fedorov.

🚀 Fedorov: Ukraine had to practically beg Europe for air-defence missiles During a livestream with Sternenko, Ukraine’s former defence minister Mykhailo Fedorov said the United States cannot expand missile production fast enough, forcing Kyiv to search European stockpiles for interceptors. Some NATO and EU countries reportedly have only five to ten anti-ballistic missiles in storage. Having more than 50 is already considered an extraordinary amount. Fedorov said that at his first Ramstein meeting, he and Mark Rutte personally asked every European defence minister to provide Ukraine with at least two to five missiles. Meanwhile, he said, Russia has recently been launching more missiles in a week or a month than Ukraine receives over several months.

Right now, recovery efforts after the Russian strikes continue in Kharkiv and the region, as well as in the Odesa and Dnipro regions. First responders have also been operating in the Sumy and Chernihiv regions. Overall, last night the Russians launched more than 170 drones against Ukraine, at least half of them “shaheds.” And throughout this entire week, the Russians launched nearly 1,000 attack drones, almost 980 guided aerial bombs, and 36 missiles of various types against our people. Every night requires multi-component air defense – air defense systems, combat aviation, mobile fire groups, interceptor drones. We are actively working with partners on each component to reinforce Ukraine’s protection. We have prepared new strong agreements with Europe to significantly bolster defense of our skies, our resilience, and our diplomacy. Glory to Ukraine!

🚨 Imagine being an Allied pilot in 1944... then THIS appears. The Messerschmitt Me 262 wasn't just another WWII fighter, it was the world's first operational jet-powered fighter, entering combat years ahead of its rivals The world's first operational jet fighter could outrun nearly every piston-engine aircraft of its time, reaching 540 mph (870 km/h) and leaving even the fastest Mustangs and Spitfires struggling to keep up. Its twin turbojets, swept wings, and blistering speed marked the beginning of the jet age and changed fighter aviation forever. This is a flying Me 262 replica taking to the skies at RIAT and several decades later. Would this have changed the war if it had arrived earlier? 👇

🚨🇷🇺 GERAN-5 JET DRONE: NATO'S EXPENSIVE AIR DEFENSES JUST BECAME OBSOLETE Russia just struck Ukrainian oil and gas facilities near Moshenka in the Sumy region with the brand-new Geran-5—a fast jet-powered kamikaze drone that’s quicker, flies higher, and hits harder than any previous Geran: 👇 🔸 Reaches speeds up to 600 km/h and climbs to 6,000 meters—easily dodges MANPADS, small anti-air guns, and interceptor drones while striking deep targets. 🔸 Weighs 850 kg at takeoff, carries a 90–130 kg warhead, and flies over 950 km—making it a cheap but powerful tactical cruise missile. 🔸 Simple straight-wing design, round body, and H-shaped tail with a turbojet engine—much easier and cheaper to build in large numbers at the Alabuga factory. 🔸 Can be launched from Su-25 attack jets for an extra 100 km range and even carry R-73 air-to-air missiles to protect other drones from enemy fighters. 🔸 Uses Cometa 12-channel satellite navigation plus 3G/4G phone tower backup—stays accurate even when jammed and shares parts with older Gerans for quick upgrades. While Ukraine begs for more Patriot systems and the West spends billions on defense that keeps failing, Russia quietly keeps improving its drone arsenal. How long until NATO admits its air-defense billions can’t match Russian engineering?

🇺🇦👍 Ukraine’s Ministry of Defence has purchased the first batch of Ukrainian guided aerial bombs (KABs), according to Mykhailo Fedorov. "The first Ukrainian guided aerial bomb (KAB) is ready for combat use. Ukraine continues to develop high-tech solutions for the front. A participant in the Brave1 program has created the first Ukrainian guided aerial bomb, which has already passed testing and is ready for operational deployment. The development took 17 months. The system is designed specifically for the realities of modern warfare and features a unique design. It is not a copy of Western or Soviet systems, but an original Ukrainian engineering solution intended to strike fortified positions, command posts, and other enemy targets at significant distances after release. The warhead weighs 250 kg. The Ministry of Defence has already purchased an initial experimental batch. Pilots are currently training with the system and adapting its use to real combat conditions. Ukraine is shifting from importing individual solutions to developing its own high-tech weapons systems, strengthening its defence forces and improving battlefield capabilities. In the near future, Ukrainian guided bombs will be used against enemy targets, increasing both range and accuracy and changing the dynamics of modern warfare." - The Ukrainian Minister of Defence wrote in his Telegram channel.

❗️Former Minister of Defense of Ukraine Fedorov reported that Ukraine successfully tested its own ballistic missile (precisely on target, without deviations). It is now necessary only to complete the testing and launch production. The test took place on the day of his dismissal. • Russia has been launching more missiles per month/week in recent months than Ukraine receives over several months. The US is unable to fully cover Ukraine’s armament needs due to its own limitations. • Fedorov maintains contact with Elon Musk (last conversation — a few days ago). • He handed over the “war plan” to Yevhen Khmara for further implementation. • He does not have the moral right to return to the position of Minister of Defense while people are protesting and linking their expectations with him. • Mobilization reform: the functions of TCCs need to be rethought, and mobilization should be clear and predictable. • A major danger is Russia’s plans to deploy its own satellite communication system. • Lately he has had a lot of communication with Zelensky.

🚀Ukraine has tested a unique and secret super-weapon that reportedly has no equivalent in the world yet The company Fire Point (the same one that produces long-range drones and the “Flamingo” missile) has successfully carried out the first tests of a new anti-aircraft missile, the FP-7.x. It is the core of a future air defense system with the symbolic name “Freya,” designed to intercept Russian ballistic missiles such as “Iskanders” and “Kinzhal” missiles, as well as swarms of drones. The key feature is the cost. The Ukrainian missile is expected to cost around $700,000, compared to nearly $4 million for the American Patriot interceptor — more than five times cheaper. If everything goes according to plan, Ukraine may reduce its reliance on scarce interceptor missiles supplied by the United States. However, experts note that the new system cannot fully replace Patriot systems for now — it would rather significantly strengthen Ukraine’s air defense capabilities.

Ukraine and Poland are preparing to host the Ukraine Recovery Conference this June. It is especially important for us that, for the first time, this annual conference will include a dedicated security and defense dimension – a key pillar of Ukraine’s recovery alongside energy, private sector development, human capital, and infrastructure reconstruction on the path to EU membership. I spoke about this at the “Road to URC” event in Rzeszów. Since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, Ukraine’s defense industrial production capacity has increased 50-fold. Nearly half of the weapons used by our Defense Forces are produced in Ukraine. We have one of the fastest innovation cycles: from idea to active combat deployment in as little as three months. Ukrainian drones, ground and maritime systems, electronic warfare capabilities, counter-drone solutions, and new types of missiles are already changing the nature of modern warfare. The world is very interested in this experience. We are ready to expand cooperation and integrate Ukraine’s defense industry into the European space. The “Build with Ukraine” and “Build in Ukraine” initiatives create tools for developing joint ventures and localizing production both in Ukraine and in partner countries. This is a shared investment in the security of our continent. I am grateful to the Ukrainian defense manufacturers who presented their stands in Rzeszów. Ukraine is ready for defense partnership. We will continue developing these contacts at the conference in Gdańsk this June.
