Ukraine has contracted 3,200 drones via UNITED24 platform
During the nine months of its existence, the Army of Drones initiative, which operates within the UNITED24 project, contracted 3,200 UAVs.
The campaign is worth over $107 million, Mykhailo Fedorov, Deputy Prime Minister for Innovation and Minister of Digital Transformation, reports.
"During the [first] 9 months of the UNITED24 project, the Drone Army contracted 3,200 UAV complexes worth more than UAH4 billion. The doctrine of using UAVs was completely transformed. More than 7,000 military personnel were trained as drone operators."
Fedorov emphasized that powerful drones are a competitive advantage over the russians.
The launch of the Army of Drones initiative was announced by the UNITED24 fundraising platform together with the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the Ministry of Digital Information last July.
This is a program that includes the systematic purchase of drones, their repair and operational replacement, as well as a pilot training course.
