There is certainly a need for increased missile production. But considering Ukraine’s defense, countering drones with missiles is truly cost-ineffective, and cheaper solutions already exist. Ukraine has developed, among other things, interceptor drones that are now even much cheaper than the drones sent by Russia. One alternative is laser systems where the cost per shot is a euro or two. While acquiring the system is quite expensive, for long-term needs—as seen now in Ukraine—it is also economically cost-effective. At least the Israeli company Rafael already has ready-to-use laser systems, and apparently Ukraine has its own laser system under development.
So, with the development of more cost-effective systems, interceptor missiles are mainly being reserved for countering ballistic/cruise missiles and aircraft. I wonder if Saab has any cost-effective defense systems in its development pipeline?
