7.1
Relevance ScoreUkraine's air force commander Col. Yuriy Cherevashenka said Monday that interceptor drones now account for about 30% of Russian aerial threats destroyed in Ukraine. He noted Ukraine ramped production to roughly 950 interceptor drones per day by December and emphasized their role against Shahed-style loitering munitions capable of very high speeds. The milestone underscores a growing, low-cost layer in Ukraine's multi-tiered air defenses.
