Polish-Russian war? Drones entering Polish airspace. [94]
There is hope....we still have "it"!
There's a drone alert in Poland - and in London, a German company is receiving a growing number of inquiries for a new air defense system! The DSEI UK arms fair in London - THE industry meeting place, and the ultimate weapons show. Also present: the German arms giant Rheinmetall.
The company declined to comment on business deals or inquiries. But BILD knows: After the attack by almost 20 Russian drones over Poland, of which only three or four were intercepted, there is nervousness. In Poland, too.....

....Poland immediately inquired
And: As observed at the trade fair, Poland contacted Rheinmetall immediately after the drone attack, requesting its Skyranger system. The first systems are now being delivered to Ukraine, where the predecessor air defense systems are already in use.
EU and NATO countries - including Romania and Hungary - have already placed orders. Germany also placed a large order - and desperately needed it: After all, the air defense system was disbanded in 2010 - one reason why Germany was able to provide Ukraine with a massive supply of the Gepard anti-aircraft vehicle. The Gepard is considered extremely successful in defending against Russian drones in Ukraine...
Can you believe how STUPID and complacent we have been???
...Drone completion much cheaper
Now, Skyranger. It's considered a relatively inexpensive solution for defending larger areas against drones and other air attacks. The ammunition is fired from cannons - although programmable, unlike expensive systems, it's not self-guided - and therefore cheaper.
