Lithuania to Launch Integrated AI Drone Defense System
The Lithuanian Ministry of National Defense announced a €5 million ($5.8 million) state contract for an integrated, AI-driven airspace surveillance system designed to detect and neutralize drone threats. Defense Minister Robertas Kaunas stated that the system will aggregate real-time data from military sensors and civil agencies to improve drone identification and public warnings. A pilot program will launch in early 2027, with full domestic sensor integration expected by 2027 and NATO platform integration by 2028.
