GUARDS — Battle Validation

This page is private. Below is real combat footage from interceptor crews we work with directly on the Ukrainian frontline — operational, current, against live Shahed-type threats.

All identifying data has been removed for operational security. What remains is the result: our crews intercept in real conditions, at night, with a success rate around 70%. The footage was flown on STING-class FPV interceptors.

We don't run lab demos. We connect counter-UAS manufacturers with active crews who validate systems where it actually matters — and return structured performance data you can't get from a test range. If your interceptors could benefit from that, the questions below are where we begin.



How a validation cycle works.

You ship your interceptors as platforms (under your own export licence); we import them as a donation through our registered foundation partner. Warhead integration is handled locally by our specialists, then an active brigade tests against Shahed-type targets. You receive a structured performance report — intercept rate, conditions, failure modes, footage.

Before anything ships, we need your platform's payload-bay specs to confirm compatibility. The questions below are where we start.

MANUFACTURER QUESTIONS

01Export licence — Do you hold, or can you obtain, an export licence to supply these systems to Ukraine? *
Without an export licence we can't move the platforms — but it's often solvable. Email hey@c-o-s-t-y-a.com and we'll figure out the right path before anything else.
02Donation basis — Units are received as a donation for testing, not a commercial purchase. Are you comfortable with this?
03Expendability — Testing against Shaheds is live combat use; units will likely be expended. Understood and acceptable?
04Configuration — Can you supply the platform WITHOUT warhead (payload integrated locally by our specialists)? *
05Payload-bay specs (needed before shipment) — mounting points, payload weight/space, power interface, initiation interface.
06Control & frequencies — control channels/frequencies, and which are configurable.
07Quantity & specs — how many units, plus range, guidance, speed.
08Integration docs / pre-deployment — what setup, calibration, documentation, or briefing is required from your side for field assembly?
09Report scope — what do you want measured? (intercept rate, conditions, failure modes, OSD footage, anything specific)
10Timeline — when could units realistically ship?
11IP & confidentiality — any restrictions on what we can share publicly about results?
