Today it’s hard to imagine waging war without using drones. Moreover, these mobile air vehicles capable of quickly and efficiently destroy any ground objects – only a small fraction of this unmanned family. For example, for intelligence or fire adjustments are more rational to use small drones – not more than a few tens of centimeters per size.
And here it’s much harder to fight with them than with unmanned planes, since traditional air defense is clearly not suitable here. And then Russian experts of the concern “Techmash” (specifically – units “Device”) came up with the idea that small drones are the easiest to destroy small-caliber shells with an intelligent system capable of carry out remote detonation. Moreover, these shells begin shrapnel.

Special modules AU-220 “Baikal” installed on infantry fighting vehicles and armored personnel carriers will easily destroy this unmanned “trifle” with artificial intelligence fuses. In this case, the time drone detonation will be determined by electronics, resulting in a cloud of fragments (shrapnel) will fly towards him, easily removing out of order similar aircraft. And shrapnel in this the case may even be plastic (heavy-duty polymer). For personnel wearing body armor and helmets, such shrapnel is not will pose the slightest danger, but drones are clearly not say hello.
Such protection from drones should go into service Russian army over the next two to three years.
