Background: On 27 January, Mykhailo Fedorov, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Digital Transformation, announced that Ukraine had purchased six anti-drone systems. The Fortem DroneHunter F700 is an autonomous drone with radar control and artificial intelligence that flies at over 100 km/h, intercepts and destroys hostile drones.
As Fedorov reports, the Shahed Hunters are protecting Ukraine's energy facilities from Russian drones.
The same radar and jamming systems protect US strategic facilities.
