Russia implements AI intercept drones: how this will change the war.
Russia is actively improving its drone systems using modern technologies such as artificial intelligence. The enemy is testing various models of intercept drones with thermal imaging systems, lasers, and AI elements. This is reported by 'Glavkom' citing the Institute for the Study of War (ISW).
According to inkorr.com: One of the innovations is the drone 'Yalinka'. It has been equipped with an optoelectronic module of Russian production that can detect drones at a great distance. According to analysts, this drone can automatically identify and intercept targets thanks to artificial intelligence. 'Yalinka' is also used to protect Russian ground-to-air missile systems.
Russia is also working on using drones to intercept fast Ukrainian targets flying at great distances. One such model is Skvorets PVO, which also has targeting and interception systems based on artificial intelligence.

Information about the readiness of the Ukrainian defense industry to counter Russian developments is currently unavailable, but The Financial Times reports a new agreement with Ukraine. This indicates enhanced cooperation in the field of security between Ukraine and global partners to ensure the country's own security and defense capabilities.
Russia is improving its drone systems using advanced technologies, which can be significant in the context of geopolitical relations with Ukraine and other countries.
