Ukraine’s new Hryfon Zakhid runs the whole drone chain on one screen
One operator assigns targets to drone crews from a tablet, in real time and without radio.
Ukraine's Operational Command West has developed an innovative app called Hryfon Zakhid, which streamlines the entire drone strike process on a single screen. This cutting-edge system enables a single operator to manage the entire chain from reconnaissance to execution, all in real time, without the need for radio communication.
The Hryfon Zakhid app is a regional adaptation of Ukraine's broader digital transformation, which has significantly reduced the time between identifying a target and carrying out a strike, from around 20 minutes to mere seconds. By consolidating the decision-making process onto one device, this app enables swift and precise strikes, while simultaneously concealing Ukrainian positions from Russian surveillance.
The Hryfon Zakhid system can be accessed by various military units, including air-assault troops, marines, and army corps, and operates seamlessly on smartphones, tablets, or computers. The app turns reconnaissance data into actionable strikes, guiding operators through the entire process, from selecting the appropriate drone to executing the strike with pinpoint accuracy.
