The Skynex air defense system, crafted by the German firm Rheinmetall, is engineered to safeguard crucial assets and structures from a diverse array of aerial dangers, including drones, helicopters, and traditional aircraft. Tailored especially for ultra-short-range aerial defense, the Skynex system uses the Advanced Hit Efficiency and Destruction (AHEAD) 35 mm programmable rounds. These rounds provide a more economical choice than missile-guided systems and aren't affected by electronic disruptions during launch. Based on the mission's specifics, up to four Revolver Guns Mk3 can be operational. These unmanned units pack both accuracy and high firepower, discharging up to 1000 rounds every minute. They're equipped with their own sensors, like tracking radar and cameras, and can autonomously tackle targets assigned by Skymaster. Their unique 35mm Ahead ammo ensures they can neutralize even minuscule threats. Beyond the powerful Oerlikon Revolver Gun Mk3, the system can integrate the Oerlikon Twin Gun GDF009 TREO, surface-to-air missiles, electronic warfare tools, and future high-energy lasers. This diverse arsenal establishes a comprehensive defense barrier against various aerial threats, ensuring readiness against mass and swarm assaults in forthcoming scenarios. The system can counteract traditional aircraft, cruise missiles, varied sized drones, and even ground-to-air missiles. Moreover, it can target mortars and artillery rockets within a (4km) range. Given its distinctive features, Skynex is primed to augment Ukraine's aerial defense strength, ensuring robust defense against challenges in short to ultra-short range airspace.
