So, in short they came up with drone interceptors that are:

  • capable of fully automatic deployment
  • as cheap as $3000 (or $2000 because there are two costs named in the video) compared to Shaheds that cost 30k+
  • are fast enough and with enough range to actually be efficient against strike drones
  • now produced at a rate of 2 drones per day per worker

I think, this was bound to happen at some point and we keep moving towards extra cheap drone warfare

I also hope this helps immensely, but considering the amount of drones used for attacks, they will need a lot of those
