Go Germany!!
holy shit that system is bleeding edge top-of-the-line NATO gear
Read that as skynet first, almost updated my bingo card there
YES!!!
​
Next step to wish for: it would be fantastic if Rheinmetall would build them under license *in Ukraine*.
We salute you Germany 🇩🇪 💪🔥👍

how fast can this thing lob out gifts for Ivan?
I’m guessing this system would be pretty handy for protecting an F16 base

Germany is doing a fantastic job.
Blacktron arrives in Ukraine
This just in, Russia destroys 100 SKYNEX systems in their first day in Ukraine. — RT News
I apologize for my language and even though not female, even I got a little wet hearing this news.
SKYNEX goes trrrt, trrrt.

Real life aimbot.
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.
[Getting it in the battlefield swatting everything rashia has to throw at it](https://youtu.be/pb5_F4_Eod8?si=WCGMLr84OlUzmqCA) will feed the algorithm and make it even better as it gains more experience. It’s one helluva system.
The producer are surely interested how it works in real battle conditions.
Skynex going live… what could go wrong
Excellent, but does it go BRRRTTTTT?
Ahead ammunition: If it flies it dies!
German weapon systems always look so damn good.
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.
Watch these things start shooting down russias best missiles too…..
Awesome work germany!
Fuck yea!
Cant wait for the first combat footage from this beast.

Germany has been consistently amazing. Bravo.
Just that intro movie: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pb5_F4_Eod8
That reminds me, I wonder how the [Terrahawk Paladin VSHORAD C-UAS system](https://visitukraine.today/blog/2739/ukraine-will-receive-the-newest-terrahawk-paladin-anti-aircraft-system-what-is-known-about-it-and-why-it-is-called-the-shahed-killer) held up over the January barrage.
Ooohhh SKYNEX, you sexy thing!!!
_This is the way_ Bloody awesome! More!!!
That is top notch close air defense. Nice!
Yeah go RHM!
