TL;DR Summary

Ukrainian forces have deployed a network of sensors and heavy machine guns to target and down Russian combat drones, as their supply of interceptor missiles from Western allies runs low. The use of mobile, low-cost defenses, including heavy machine guns with thermal scopes and tablets, has proven effective in intercepting Iranian Shahed-type exploding drones used by Russia. The Ukrainian military has also established a sensor network using cell phones and microphones to track incoming engine noise and aid in targeting aerial threats. Ukrainian officials are calling for more air defense weapons from their allies to address the ongoing conflict with Russia.
