Lithuania's Ministry of National Defense confirmed the upcoming procurement of Polish anti-drone detection and neutralization systems from Advanced Protection Systems on June 12, 2025. Funded by the Ministry of Energy via energy companies, the systems will combine radar, RF, optical, infrared sensors, electronic warfare methods, and kinetic interceptor drones. The interceptor drones weigh 1.5 kg, have a 1500-meter range, and disable hostile drones non-explosively by collision impact. Security personnel will operate the systems at energy facilities during peacetime, with Lithuanian Armed Forces assuming control during armed aggression to integrate them into the national air defense network. Minister Dovilė Šakalienė emphasized the strategic value given the rapid threat growth of drones targeting critical infrastructure. This acquisition enhances Lithuania's layered defense, leveraging technologically advanced high-tech military tools to counter drone swarm threats.
