  • It focuses on early warning<\/strong> and fast response<\/strong> so that cheap, low-altitude drones cannot disrupt airports, public spaces, or borders.<\/li>\n
  • It forms the core of Eastern Flank Watch<\/strong>, which also plans a <\/span>ground wall<\/strong> and a <\/span>maritime wall<\/strong>.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • First proposed by Lithuania in 2023.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
