Defender Army offers a large fleet of unmanned aerial vehicles. The Jupiter line consists of 12 models that cost from 69,900 to 600,000 euros. They differ in range, payload, cameras, and other characteristics. The drones are resistant to EW and jamming.

Jupiter Hunter 5

The company is currently in the final stages of developing the Jupiter Hunter 5 attack drone with a flight range of up to 6000 km. So far, its other characteristics remain a secret.

Denys Lyubchenko, a representative of the company, told about this:

“THERE ARE NO SIMILAR DRONES IN UKRAINE YET. IT IS CURRENTLY BEING TESTED, BUT IT WILL TAKE SOME TIME.”

According to him, about 100 of the manufacturer’s drones are currently deployed in all areas of combat operations.

Independence from China

Unfortunately, Ukrainian drone developers are almost entirely dependent on Chinese components. However, Defender Army distanced itself from this in advance. The company buys mostly European components and uses Sony cameras.

“WE REALIZED THAT SOONER OR LATER IT WOULD HAPPEN. THAT’S WHY WE DON’T DEPEND ON CHINA IN PRINCIPLE,” SAID THE COMPANY REPRESENTATIVE.

He is confident that China will cut off the supply channels of absolutely all drones: small, medium, and large.
