  "description": "Lithuania's Ministry of National Defence completed the procurement of stationary anti-drone systems to protect strategic energy infrastructure, funded by the Ministry of Energy and energy firms. The systems feature advanced detection (radars, RF detectors, optical and infrared sensors) and neutralization technologies including electronic warfare, kinetic countermeasures, and GPS blocking/spoofing. The systems will be integrated with Lithuania's air defense and electronic intelligence networks. Defense Minister Dovilė Šakalienė emphasized integration of the systems under the Armed Forces in case of aggression to strengthen national defense. Energy Minister Žygimantas Vaičiūnas highlighted the critical importance of physical protection for energy infrastructure amid current geopolitical tensions. The equipment was selected from three suppliers, with Polish Advanced Protection Systems SA successfully meeting all technical requirements. Lithuania is also continuing to strengthen other counter-mobility and electronic warfare capabilities.",

The anti-drone systems will use advanced detection technologies including radar, radio frequency detectors, and optical/infrared sensors, as well as neutralization measures such as electronic warfare, kinetic solutions, and GPS jamming/spoofing. In case of aggression against Lithuania, the Armed Forces will take control of these systems and integrate them into the national air defense network. This measure reinforces Lithuania's defense capabilities amid evolving UAV threats to critical infrastructure, contributing to national energy and security objectives. The Ministry of Defence and the Defence Resources Agency coordinated the purchase to ensure interoperability with other defense and intelligence systems.",
