I don’t suspect this type of vehicle to be a hard counter to fpv drones/small unmanned aerial attack, but I do expect it to be the natural evolution of close to medium range air defense for armored manuever, especially because nothing about the air defense capability of a Skyranger system mounted on a Lynx platform precludes it from being a good all around generalist armored fighting vehicle or at least easily reconfigurable to one.

    Probably also has the nice side effect of making missed shots less harmful, I assume the fragments have a lower terminal velocity and less damaging impact when they fall back to Earth.
