General Cherry Bullet
Bullet, General Chereshnya Bullet
Cheap, 3D-printable electric interceptor drone that an operator flies into Shahed-type drones and detonates a small warhead on them.
$2,100 Per drone, price quoted by a company representative at UMEX 2026; excludes ground station and crew.
| Maker | General Cherry (General Chereshnya) |
|---|---|
| Origin | Ukraine |
| Built | Ukraine |
| Warhead | 0.8 kg |
| Top speed | 310 km/h |
| Max range | 20 km |
| Ceiling | 3 km |
| Propulsion | Four electric motors on delta-wing tips, 8S3P lithium-ion battery |
| Guidance | Operator-flown via camera video link (day, night and homing variants); target recognition range up to 600 m |
| Launcher | Hand or ground launched by a small drone crew |
All performance figures are manufacturer claims: 310 km/h top speed, 17 to 20 km tactical range, 3,000 m effective altitude and a 0.4 to 0.8 kg warhead depending on version. The maker's product page lists a higher 6.8 km maximum altitude and an 86% hit rate, which do not match its show briefings. Serial production started in October 2025 and the drone is codified for Ukraine's forces, but no source we opened confirms a specific Bullet kill, so it is listed as fielded rather than combat-proven.
