Counter-drone
interceptor

Guardian-1 Interceptor is designed for one-way attack drones — including Shahed-136 and Geran-2 — and other Group 3-class unmanned threats.

Swarm economics
are broken

Current intercept costs of $500K–$2M per shot against drones costing only ~$20K fail at scale. Swarms drain inventory and overwhelm point defense systems.

HOW IT WORKS

User Instructions

Single-operator launch with radar-assisted targeting

Target Designation

The navigator receives target designation from the radar crew based on azimuth and gives the command to take off and direction.

Manual Launch

The pilot takes off and goes to the interception square using manual flight control.

Radar Correction

The target is displayed on radar so it sees both the target and interceptor and corrects the flight.

Visual Intercept

When approaching, the pilot finds the target visually through the camera, approaches and destroys the target.
