Tirada-2

A secretive Russian ground system built to switch off communications satellites — jamming the relay birds that armies (and Ukraine) depend on. It is the counter to the transparent battlefield: if sensing is the new deterrent, this is the attempt to blind it. Ukraine drone-killed one in January 2026.

ICEYE SAR Constellation

The world's largest radar-satellite constellation — Finnish microsatellites that see through cloud, darkness and camouflage. It is Ukraine's crowdfunded "People's Satellite," feeding nearly 6,000 radar images to Ukrainian targeting cells — and now shadowed in orbit by Russia.

Vyrivniuvach

Ukraine's first home-built guided glide bomb — a clamp-on wing-and-guidance kit that turns a dumb 250-kg bomb into a stand-off precision weapon, the Ukrainian answer to Russia's devastating FAB-UMPK. Declared combat-ready in May 2026; no confirmed strike yet.

Sea Trident

Ukraine's first heavy underwater drone — a ~10-tonne autonomous submarine pitched for strike, cargo and the unusual role of hunting other underwater drones. Unveiled at Eurosatory 2026, every figure is vendor-declared and unproven.

Delta

Ukraine's "Google for the military" — a cloud battlefield-awareness and command system that fuses drone, satellite, sensor and intelligence feeds into one shared map and, the military says, compresses the find-to-strike cycle from days to minutes. The first software entry in the Lexicon.

SkyFall P1-Sun

Ukraine's ~$1,000 answer to the Shahed: a partly-3D-printed interceptor drone that rams or proximity-detonates against incoming attack drones — the cheap, kinetic, deterrence-by-denial weapon now gaining an onboard AI eye that spots a Shahed faster than a human pilot.

Geran-4

Russia's jet-powered Shahed: a purpose-built, ~500 km/h one-way attack drone designed for one job — to fly faster than the cheap Ukrainian interceptor drones that had been knocking the propeller Shaheds out of the sky. The speed comes at the cost of range.

Fiber-Optic FPV Drone

The jam-proof attack drone reshaping the front: a standard FPV flown down a hair-thin glass fiber instead of a radio link — immune to every electronic-warfare countermeasure, and the weapon that pushed the "kill zone" from 10–20 km out to 50.
