According to Syrskyi, Ukrainian manufacturers presented new developments and demonstrated their operation in simulated combat conditions. He noted that the test results confirmed the systems possess the capacity to reduce the effectiveness of enemy air attacks. Technical specifications, operational principles, and deployment tactics remain classified. “Our task is to ensure that the Russian occupiers learn about their capabilities directly on the battlefield,” Syrskyi said. The military command will analyze the test results before finalizing decisions regarding the scale of production and the integration of these systems into frontline units.
