Estonian missile interceptor drone P4P was successfully tested in Ukraine, capable of intercepting high-speed jet drones with vertical takeoff and rocket propulsion.
The Estonian high-speed missile interceptor drone P4P was tested in Ukraine. Developed by Estonian tech company Alatyr Group from Tallinn, the drone can reach speeds sufficient to intercept jet drones moving at approximately 500 km/h. The P4P uses rocket propulsion for rapid approach to the target and features vertical takeoff combining rocket propulsion with an electric multicopter. It has an elongated cylindrical body for aerodynamic efficiency during high-speed horizontal flight. The drone is equipped with four powerful electric motors for initial vertical lift-off followed by activation of the rocket booster.
Confidence: High
The report concerns testing of a defensive missile interceptor drone technology used for air defense, indicating preparation or enhancement of defensive capabilities rather than hostile aggression.
