Today we will talk about the Skynex air defense system from the German concern Rheinmetall. Its characteristics are impressive, and the very presence of such systems seriously strengthens the defense of Ukraine's skies against Russian attacks.
“Features of Skynex complexes. The characteristics of this air defense system are quite powerful. In particular, this complex can shoot down several drones at once. Skynex – is an object mechanism that can operate in automatic mode, a 35 mm cannon that fires programmed projectiles, can work on several objects at a distance of 4 kilometers. Where it will stand, even in automatic mode, neither the “Shahed” nor the cruise missile will approach the object. A very important feature is that the system uses special algorithms for evaluation threats and making a decision to open fire without the intervention of the operator,” – the military emphasizes.So, in automatic mode, Skynex is able to independently determine the most effective type of ammunition and its parameters (for example, detonation distance) to destroy a specific target.
We should add that Skynex uses modern digital control systems, which allows it to be integrated with other systems air defense and command posts. This makes it possible to effectively coordinate actions with other defense systems, creating a multi-level defense.
With the help of such advanced systems as Skynex, Ukraine has the opportunity to significantly strengthen its defense potential and provide reliable protection against potential threats.
