Ideal Dronobiyka for the Armed Forces: The UK has shown the Tridon MK2 anti -aircraft

Tridon MK2 has a range compared to a full-fledged anti-aircraft missile complex of a small radius, which makes the installation an important development to combat Russian intelligence drones. British defense company Bae Systems first showed the Tridon MK2 anti-aircraft artillery unit with a range of up to 12 km. The corresponding post appeared on the manufacturer's website.

The result of about 90 years of experience in Bae Systems has been the Tridon MK2 complex, which has a gun of 40 mm BOFORS 40 MK4. Such a system can be effective for destroying reconnaissance drones at a low price. The specified Tridon MK2 range is as much as 12 km, which is essentially equal to the anti-aircraft missile complex of the small radius. The shooting rate in the installation will be 200-300 shots per minute, and you can use programmable BOFORS 3P ammunition to damage goals.

You can integrate the combat module into different platforms, such as a ship, a tracked ATV BVS 10, a truck or an electric drive. Defense Express added that the only problem is the production cycle of 15 months and the lack of mass production. However, Tridon MK2 should be an effective solution to reconnaissance UAVs. In addition, the problem is not only drones, but is an operative-tactical "Iscander" missile system, which cannot be knocked down by ordinary SCR.
