Ukrainian company BlueBird Tech has unveiled an updated version of its unmanned aerial vehicle detector — the «Chuyka 4.0». The device features not only a modernized casing and improved autonomy but also a fundamentally new capability: scanning in a previously inaccessible frequency range.

### Extended Detection Spectrum

Previously, «Chuyka» detectors operated in standard ranges — 1.2 GHz, 3.3 GHz, and 5.8 GHz. The new model adds support for frequencies from 6100 to 8600 MHz, allowing for the detection of drones using higher communication frequencies. This is particularly relevant given the evolution of enemy UAV tactics.

### Technical Improvements and Autonomy

«Chuyka 4.0» is equipped with a fourth antenna, which increases signal capture accuracy and speed. Scanning the entire frequency range takes only 4–8 seconds. The device operates for up to 6 hours with an additional battery and up to 2 hours without it. The casing has been redesigned to enhance resistance to external impacts.

### Visualization and Combat Application

One of the key features of the new model is a color display that outputs streaming video from the intercepted drone signal. This allows the operator not only to detect the presence of a threat but also to visually assess its nature. According to the manufacturer, the device has already undergone combat testing and proven its effectiveness in real-world conditions.

### Price and Availability

The cost of the new detector is 39,900 hryvnias. Given its functionality and test results, «Chuyka 4.0» is positioned as an affordable yet powerful electronic intelligence tool for units requiring rapid detection of aerial threats.

### Context: Other Developments in EW

Parallel to the development of detectors, other innovative solutions in the field of electronic warfare are being created in Ukraine. For example, it was previously reported on the DART missile, launched from stratospheric balloons at altitudes of 12–18 km. It is fully resistant to enemy EW systems and is controlled by servos that ensure a stable trajectory under any drop conditions.

The development of such systems testifies to the deep integration of technologies into the country's military infrastructure and the striving to create multi-level protection against modern threats.
