Russia says its new anti-drone turret fires programmable rounds that calculate when to explode

Russia unveiled the ZAK-30 "Citadel," a stationary anti-drone turret that fires programmable 30mm airburst rounds to shred quadcopters and small fixed-wing drones; Rostec says it’s been combat-tested and will be shown at a Moscow forum.
The system uses optical and radar sensors to track flight paths and remote-controlled fuzes to detonate shells at the optimal point, so fewer rounds are needed per target.
The tech mirrors Western solutions (Rheinmetall’s AHEAD, Northrop Grumman’s programmable rounds), highlighting that smart airburst ammo is becoming standard against drones.
