  • •Over 60 aerial targets destroyed by robotic turrets in Ukraine.
  • •Targets included Banderol missiles and Geran-5 drones.
  • •100 Ukrainian companies are involved in the private air defence project.

Automated turrets operated by private air defence brigades in Ukraine have successfully destroyed over 60 aerial targets since the project's inception. The targets included Banderol drone-launched missiles and Geran-5 jet-powered drones, with a significant number of Russian UAVs neutralized over Kyiv in the past month. The development of these robotic turrets began in 2024, and they are now considered an integral part of Ukraine's air defence strategy. As of October 2026, 100 Ukrainian companies have joined the initiative, which aims to enhance the protection of critical infrastructure and improve engagement efficiency while reducing personnel requirements. The technology has been reported to be operational and effective against aerial threats on the front lines and urban areas.
