Ukrainian company OSIRIS AI has developed a new interceptor drone, the UEB-1, that can reach speeds of up to 315 kilometers per hour (196 mph) and uses artificial intelligence to track targets, Militarnyi reported on March 25.

The drone can carry out interceptions with minimal operator input because it processes tracking data on board, the report said.

UEB-1 has a range of about 18 kilometers (11 miles) and a flight time of more than 10 minutes. Its warhead weighs about half a kilogram and the drone itself weighs about 3.1 kilograms. OSIRIS AI presented the UEB-1 at the Xponential trade show in Düsseldorf.

On March 12, Ihor Fedirko, executive director of the Ukrainian Council of Arms Manufacturers, told NV Radio that current production of Ukrainian interceptor drones is two to three times greater than the needs of the Armed Forces. He said that as of January 2026, Ukrainian manufacturers were producing 80% to 90% of the number of interceptor drones required by the Armed Forces, but that production has increased significantly in the past two months.
