  1. holy shit that system is bleeding edge top-of-the-line NATO gear

  2. Read that as skynet first, almost updated my bingo card there

  3. YES!!!

    ​

    Next step to wish for: it would be fantastic if Rheinmetall would build them under license *in Ukraine*.

  4. This just in, Russia destroys 100 SKYNEX systems in their first day in Ukraine. — RT News

  5. I apologize for my language and even though not female, even I got a little wet hearing this news.

  6. Very nice. If Ukraine is flooded with this class of weapon (successor to Gepard right?), then cost of defence against Russian missiles and drones will be dramatically reduced.

    Can save those AA missiles for defending highest value targets.

    Thanks Germany. More please… many more.

    I can see Germany ramping production on these… not just for Ukraine, but because modern war requires them to take down pesky cheap drones.

  7. The producer are surely interested how it works in real battle conditions.

  8. This system should perform well for point defense. The ammunition cost is league’s cheaper than missile systems. I would expect this to be very effective especially against drones.

  9. Watch these things start shooting down russias best missiles too…..
