General Cherry is leveling up Ukraine’s counter-drone game with AIR SPEED, a lightweight interceptor built for speed, agility, and precision.
Clocking a top speed of 236 kilometers (147 miles) per hour, the system can outpace many small, fast-moving aerial targets with ease.
Its 8-inch (20.3-centimeter) frame keeps the interceptor compact while boosting maneuverability and in-flight responsiveness during high-speed engagements.
Designed for versatility, AIR SPEED can take on a wide range of threats, including one-way attack drones, commercial quadcopters, and tactical reconnaissance unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).
It is also capable of engaging fixed-wing surveillance drones like ZALA, Supercam, Eagles, and Lancet-type loitering munitions.
‘Frontline Ready’
Already deployed across multiple frontlines, AIR SPEED has reportedly proven effective against enemy reconnaissance and strike UAVs.
It complements the company’s existing interceptor portfolio, including the BULLET for countering Shahed-type drones and the AIR Pro, which uses a 10-inch (25-centimeter) frame.
General Cherry confirmed that the interceptor is now available via the Brave1 platform, Ukraine’s central hub for defense tech procurement.
