Ukraine codifies Wild Hornets' remote drone control, its first to clear NATO standards
Codification turns a battlefield-proven interceptor link into procurement-ready kit and lets crews fly the kill from hundreds of kilometers behind the line.
MOBIDIK is a modular Ukrainian unmanned surface vessel family from Avarid, unveiled in June 2026 in six combat variants spanning maritime air defense, medium- and strategic-range strike, missile-and-gun engagement and a 300 kg assault configuration.

Russia has launched roughly 1,400 jet-powered Geran drones at Ukraine this year, fast enough to slip past the cheap interceptors Kyiv built its air defense around.
Drone-on-drone interceptors now down most of Russia's Shaheds for about $2,500 each, cheap enough that the US, NATO, and Gulf states want to import the capability. Russia is scaling a 500 km/h jet drone built to beat them.
Ukrainian interceptor drones now down about half of Russia's Shaheds, so Moscow is scaling a faster jet-powered Geran-4 built to outrun them.
