As part of the Army of Drones project, the Ministry of Digital Transformation handed over more than two thousand Ukrainian drones from the state to the logistics forces, as well as the first 3,000 FPV drones from Operation Unity.
Each combat drone is equipped with Ukrainian-made ammunition and sent to 19 military units. These powerful “birds” will help to more effectively defeat enemy positions and equipment.
In total, the Defense Forces will receive 10,000 kamikaze drones. They were purchased thanks to a joint fundraising effort by UNITED24, Come Back Alive and monobank. And, of course, thanks to the overwhelming support from the public – 235,000,000 hryvnias in three days.
The General Staff will distribute and deliver the drones to the military in the hottest spots of the frontline. The batch includes drones made exclusively in Ukraine. Among them are copters and airplane-type UAVs: reconnaissance, kamikaze, and reusable bombers. The drones will help to destroy enemy positions and equipment. All UAVs were purchased under the state program.
“We continue to systematically transfer drones to the Defense Forces, because it is the “birds” that cause enormous losses to the enemy,” Deputy Prime Minister Mykhailo Fedorov said.
Last week alone, drones hit 39 tanks, 57 guns, 34 armored vehicles and 307 strongholds. This is a loss of millions of dollars for the Russians.
