Ukraine's Brave1 defence-tech cluster announced it has developed a new low-cost technology already being used to shoot down Russian S8000 Banderol missile drones. The system represents part of Ukraine's ongoing effort to counter increasingly sophisticated Russian drone and missile threats with cost-effective defensive measures. The Banderol is a Russian-developed missile drone that has posed a growing threat to Ukrainian air defences; officials say the new interception technology is already proving effective against it, though further details on deployment scale were not disclosed.
