X-Bow unveils Buckler sub-$100K supersonic drone interceptor

X-Bow Systems revealed Buckler, a low-cost (<$100K) supersonic interceptor optimized for defeating Group 3 drones (e.g., Shahed-136 class) and potentially some subsonic cruise missiles. The novelty is the combination of supersonic performance with a price point near drone-like interceptors, aiming to improve cost-exchange and engagement tempo against mass drone/missile raids.
