  "account": "Sky Sentinel is an autonomous turret, a heavy machine gun on a 360-degree mount. Its software, written by Ukrainian engineers, takes radar input and separates drones from birds. It tracks the target, computes the ballistic solution and fires without a human. UNITED24 Media, the outlet of the UNITED24 fundraising platform, reported on 26 May 2025 that one prototype had downed four Shahed drones at the front. Dates and places were withheld for security. Its $1.5 million campaign for 10 turrets at about $150,000 each was complete. Forbes (David Hambling, 27 May 2025), as relayed by Euromaidan Press on 28 May 2025, repeats the four kills. It gives a pointing precision of 17 micro-radians. The Defense Post (3 June 2025) adds that 10 to 30 units would be needed to protect a city. It adds that production is scaling to dozens a month. The Monitor's statement that a human authorizes each shot is not in any read report.",

Its software, written by Ukrainian engineers, takes radar input and separates drones from birds. It tracks the target, computes the ballistic solution and fires without a human. UNITED24 Media, the outlet of the UNITED24 fundraising platform, reported on 26 May 2025 that one prototype had downed four Shahed drones at the front. Dates and places were withheld for security. Its $1.5 million campaign for 10 turrets at about $150,000 each was complete. Forbes (David Hambling, 27 May 2025), as relayed by Euromaidan Press on 28 May 2025, repeats the four kills. It gives a pointing precision of 17 micro-radians. The Defense Post (3 June 2025) adds that 10 to 30 units would be needed to protect a city. It adds that production is scaling to dozens a month.
