- UK Typhoon jets fitted with bargain-bin drone busters for Middle East sorties
The UK has deployed low-cost anti-drone rockets to the Middle East, which will be fitted to British Typhoon jets. The Advanced Precision Kill Weapon System (APKWS) has already seen operational use in the Middle East with No. 9 Squadron RAF. The system is said to cost $30,000 to $40,000, making it much less expensive than a typical air-to-air missile.
