A new air defense system was introduced in Germany. Helsing presented the contrast air defense system, which is based on artificial intelligence and includes two interceptors - AD-1 Hell and AD-2 Ambush. The director of the company noted that the guidance system is based on their AI and combines radar, electro-optical, infrared and acoustic data from sensors from any manufacturer using an open architecture. Both interceptors are also equipped with a radar seeker. The AD-1 and AD-2 are currently undergoing testing and are expected to enter the market in 2027. The AD-1 is a turbojet powered interceptor capable of patrolling a certain area. It has a speed of more than 700 km/h, a height of more than 9 km and a range of up to 20 km. The AD-2 has a similar range and altitude, but is a full missile defense system with a solid propulsion engine, giving a speed of up to Mach 2.5. The interceptors are said to be launched from special tanks and can hold either 20 AD-1 or 40 AD-2. The cost of AD-1/2 does not exceed 100 thousand euros, noting that the seeker has a price that is a tenth of its analogues. Production volume should be several thousand missiles per month after development is completed in the second half of 2027.
