German Army will receive "Tested in Battles" drones

To spread: German manufacturer Argus Interception stated that he had completed the supply to the Bundesver of Autonomous Drones, A1-Falke, equipped with a mesh module to capture and neutralize enemy UAVs. Moreover, the developers claim that the drones were checked in the battles "to accomplish the tasks".

In 2025, Germany's armed forces planned to buy about 24 "network" ARGUS interceptors with an option of further expansion of the park - up to 136 systems by 2027, but official details about the exact amount of first delivery are not disclosed. About it writes the profile German edition Hartpunkt. It is noted that Argus positions its system as promptly verified and integrated with external channels of detection (radars, communication systems C2, etc.

), emphasizing the possibility of configuration in stationary, mobile and automobile performance. Commenting on the event, the Defense Express reviewers noted that manufacturers declare their "combat check" of their systems, but Argus does not reveal the details where the field tests were conducted, although the experience of applying in the Ukrainian conflict is not excluded - which, however, remains unconfirmed.

"One can mention the case where Rheinmetall has hinted that they supply the FV-014 drone with the facet steals fuselage to Ukraine-they also argued that their UAVs tested in real battlefields," analytics write. Argus Interception created an interceptor based on a large-scale quadcopter with its own sensory subsystem (radar + optics / Lidar) and AI-module for auto surseal and capture of targets.

The ultimate phase is the launch of the grid (compressor or pneumatic actuator "Net-Gan"), which physically captures FPV-zero, after which the goal can be pulled out for the evidence base or destroy the safe method. The company claims high accuracy and "combat" efficiency, indicating more than 90% of successful seizures in demonstration and operational tests; However, these figures cannot be verified independently.
