Jet-powered drones outpace Ukrainian defenses

Original: Jet-powered drones outpace Ukrainian defenses as manufacturers race to build new interceptors

Russian jet-powered attack drones are reportedly flying too fast for many of Ukraine's existing air defenses, forcing manufacturers in Ukraine and allied countries to accelerate development of new interceptor drones capable of matching their speed. The shift highlights how cheap, fast drones are changing battlefield dynamics and straining costly missile-based defense systems.

Why now: Reports that Russia's faster drones are evading Ukrainian defenses have raised urgency over the drone arms race.
