Ukraine’s MAC HUB MAC DEAD FLY-01 interceptor drones have debuted on Brave1 marketplace, according to the country’s Defender Media news outlet.
MAC Dead Fly is a tactical interceptor quadcopter designed to destroy enemy UAVs like the Shahed-136, FPV drones, and other small targets, according to MAC HUB. “The cost of a single drone is significantly lower than the price of a potential target, making MAC Dead Fly a cost effective alternative to expensive air defence systems.” The drone is equipped with a high-quality thermal imaging camera, enabling the operator to see targets in total darkness. Maximum speed is 300 km/h, operating altitude up to 5000m and the warhead weight is 500 kg.
According to Defender Media: “One of the drone’s key features is its flexible launch capability: it can take off vertically from ground-based launch sites or be deployed from a carrier aircraft at speeds of around 160 km/h. The UAV is also compatible with naval platforms. During recent Defence Intelligence tests on the Dnipro River, 27 interceptors were successfully launched from a Katran X1.2 uncrewed surface vessel. The Katran naval drones are also produced by the MAC HUB group.”
