Man, I think small effective anti-drone systems are going to be a hot area of development for about the next 10 yrs at least.

I can see this developing into the lifeline for the UGF / Ukrainian Ground Forces. Taking a palletised/ modular system that can be rapidly installed and deployed; with very common 70mm rockets that dozens of countries produce, it also acts as a force multiplier on a budget. I feel that the seeker-head package that L3 and other subsidiaries makes will likely be the supply chokepoint. Plus, it allows somewhat cost-effective air-defense against UAVs, particularly Class 1-2 UAVs up to 12,000ft / 3,657m. Combine these with the 30mm anti-UAV EOS Slinger to provide point-defense if missiles / rockets miss, and it works. Allows the Gepards and other anti-air complexes (Patriot, IRIS-T SLM, S-300 etc) to focus on more valuable targets such as aircraft and cruise missiles, rather than UAVs, save for Orlan-10s. That's a concern now - Class III+ UAVs broach between SHORAD capabilities and mid-range.

Offense will always have the advantage. They’re fooling themselves.
