The EDM4S, also called SkyWiper, is a portable electronic-warfare anti-drone weapon made by the Lithuanian company NT Service, first shown publicly in 2019 and put into operational use by Ukraine armed forces in 2021. Built in a rifle-like shape modeled on the Heckler & Koch G36 and weighing about 5.5 kilograms, it jams the communication, GPS and GLONASS signals of unmanned aircraft within a range of three to five kilometers, causing them to crash, land or return to a preset point.
