Also known as
  • Kolibri-i10
  • TAF-I10
  • TAF Kolibri I10

TAF Kolibri-i10 UAV is a Ukrainian high-speed counter-UAS interceptor from TAF Industries, developed from military adaptation of Kolibri 10-inch FPV drones into a manufacturer-built manual interceptor. TAF describes the TAF-I10 as intended for fixed-wing reconnaissance drones and Geran-1/Shahed-131 targets, with a 0.6 kg payload, more than 200 km/h maximum speed, 12.5 km combat radius, 25 km maximum flight distance, protected communications, and day or night digital-camera options.

Design Background

Public reporting describes Kolibri-i10 as TAF Industries' manufacturer-level refinement of a field adaptation: Ukrainian military users had already been flying Kolibri 10-inch FPV drones in an interceptor role before TAF built a dedicated high-speed model around that requirement.

Base concept

Kolibri 10-inch FPV drone adapted for aerial interception.

Supported by Mezha and Ukrainska Pravda reporting on TAF's February-March 2026 announcements.

Target set

Fixed-wing reconnaissance UAVs and Geran-1/Shahed-131 class targets.

TAF's product page names the target classes; no source checked supports extending this exact target claim to Shahed-136/Geran-2.

Control link

Manual control with protected communications and encrypted MilELRS reported in development coverage.

The official product page supplies current performance figures; older press figures are treated as secondary where they differ.
