Production of 4,000 AI-Enabled German Kamikaze Drones for Ukraine Underway
Germany’s Helsing defense company announced on Monday that the final production versions of its HX-2 AI attack drone were rolling off the production line and would soon be on their way to Kyiv.
The co-founders of the German defense AI firm Helsing announced on Dec. 2 that production of their HX-2 “Karma” kamikaze drone was now in full swing, with the first few hundred of almost 4,000 of the unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) earmarked for Ukraine, to be delivered this month. Germany’s Defense Minister Boris Pistorius said he had been “very pleased that the delivery of these drones equipped with artificial intelligence (AI) technology is already underway” according to the German news publication Bild. The product information states: “Onboard artificial intelligence ensures that HX-2 is immune to hostile electronic warfare (EW) measures through its ability to search for, re-identify, and engage targets, even without a signal or a continuous data connection, while allowing a human operator stays in or on the loop for all critical decisions.”
