The US plans to create an analog of the Russian "Citadel" drone defense system
American military experts have shown interest in the Russian "Citadel" electronic warfare system. According to specialists from the US, such technologies are the most effective way to counter mass attacks by unmanned aerial vehicles.
Currently, the American side is exploring the possibility of creating its own analog of this system. The main task for engineers is to develop a unit with a high-precision guidance system that can quickly detect and neutralize drone swarms in the air.
The Russian "Citadel" has already proven itself as a reliable means of protection, capable of suppressing drone control signals at a significant distance. The US military believes that the implementation of such technology will help them solve the problem of vulnerability to modern swarm attacks, which are becoming increasingly frequent in the context of modern conflicts.
At the moment, there is no official data on the start of development for an American prototype. However, experts note that the interest in Russian developments in the field of electronic warfare underscores the high effectiveness of domestic defense systems.
