Drone air defense how Nemesis destroys Russian strike dronesAccording to the unit, 24 enemy targets were intercepted in March, and 36 in April.To do this, the regiment used experimental interceptor drones.
The cost of one such drone is 5,000.For comparison, the estimated cost of the Shahed strike drone is 150,000, and the Gerbera is 10,000.
The cost of the missile, which the Ukrainian Armed Forces usually use to intercept Russian drones, is about 1 million.

In 2024, strike drones began to shoot down enemy reconnaissance UAVs, and in 2025 we began to shoot down strategic strike drones of the Shahed type.
Ukrainian drones for a few thousand in the professional hands of our fighters can not only preserve the infrastructure, but also save on expensive air defense equipment, commented Artem Belenkov, Chief of Staff of the 412th Nemesis Air Defense Division.
During a year of combat work, operators of the 412th separate regiment of Nemesis unmanned systems destroyed one hundred tanks of the Russian army.Nemesis inflicted the greatest losses on the invaders last winter and fall, especially in November 2024 and February of this year.
