Details: According to Mykhailo Fedorov, Piranha AVD 360 is a unique electronic warfare system that helps protect armoured vehicles and personnel more effectively from Russian drones.

The system creates a protective dome up to 600 metres around itself. Under the influence of the system, a copter or kamikaze drone cannot receive commands or transmit data. As a result, the drone either hangs in the air and makes an emergency landing or falls uncontrollably.

Piranha also suppresses satellite navigation systems, such as Russian GLONASS.
