European Firm Targets Russia's Jet-Powered Geran Drones
Helsing has unveiled Contra, an AI-controlled autonomous air defense system, alongside two new interceptors, the AD-1 Inferno and AD-2 Ambush, designed to counter Russia’s increasingly fast attack drones. The system is expected to reach market readiness in late 2027 and uses European supply chains, free of Chinese components. This development may signal a new approach to air defense, with a focus on affordability and autonomy, as reported by Unknown Source.
