Sting The Sting FPV quadcopter drone-interceptor was developed in Ukraine as a low-cost, agile solution to counter the Iranian Shaheed-136 attack drones and their Russian replica Geran'-2. It is built of camera, explosive charge, and quadcopter platform. The drone is detonated by the operator upon approaching the target. Sting entered service at the end of 2024, and was a success. The key operational parameters of the drone are: - Maximal altitude 3km - Speed 160 km/h - Operation: remote controlled by specially trained operator via VR goggles. - Communication: radio channel - Upcoming upgrades and modifications: the new version of the Sting drone had demonstrated the peak speed 326km/h. It is planned to equip drones with target sensors. Future modifications will include artificial intelligence (AI) for optimised targeting. The development of Sting was crowd-funded. It is manufactured by SME company at a rate 100 units per day, with planed increase to 600 units daily.
