DRDO and PSUs

Time based detonator can fix the issue with Swarm creating a wall to eat the impact of proximity fuses.

Skyranger from krauts already does something like that. You can also use munitions with high rate of sharpnel dispersion to knockout alot of drones at once.

There is one I have been thinking about is creating interceptor drones with can be controlled by a autonomous computer and basically ram themselves into a drone swarm with explosives. It can even be manually controlled.
Unfortunately I am 100% sure that the fuze used by us with 30mm HEPF shell is a proxy fuze only. This is still not a programmable fuze or ahead type which the army and airforce wants. You will need to integrate a time functionality as well with the proximity functionality to make it a programmable round.

And a proximity fuze cannot be used against ground targets like infantry clusters. Here you need the time functionality rather than proximity functionality obviously because a proxy fuze won't be working well with ground so near to the shell. Here, making an electronic time only fuze should be rather easy than combined proximity+time, given that we have already made the harder proximity one. And with some good fire control system Electronic time fuze should be as good as proxy or even better as German AHEAD is basically a Electronic time fuze mated with prefeagmented shell.

Also, one fact is none other than rheinmetall in West has made a prefeagmented 30mm round. Others including US are still using basic HEI ammo with natural fragmention as airburst even for drone defense.
