TL;DR Summary

The US has included 10 mobile c-UAS laser-guided rocket systems in its latest military aid package to Ukraine, worth around $2.6 billion, to counter ongoing Russian drone attacks. The c-UAS laser-guided rocket systems will enable Ukraine to fire precision rockets from mobile positions and will form part of a layered defense against drones. The precision-guided rockets can be effective against both air and ground targets, becoming especially valuable when facing wave after wave of drones. The US has previously provided a counter-unmanned aerial system known as the VAMPIRE to Ukraine, which uses small missiles to shoot UAVs out of the sky.
