Solutions to win: Ministry of Defense approves delivery of Shchedryk UAV complex to Ukraine’s armed forces

The Defense Department has officially approved and finalized the domestically produced unmanned aerial vehicle system "Shchedryk" delivery to the Defense Forces units. This complex is designed to monitor enemy activities on the battlefield effectively and can function day and night.

The Ministry of Defense of Ukraine reported that.

According to the Main Directorate for Supporting the Life Cycle of Armaments and Military Equipment, the "Shchedryk" system includes a control station and remote-controlled aircraft. These aircraft have silent electric engines and are highly resistant to radio-electronic interference.

The "Shchedryk" aircraft can carry out tasks in difficult weather conditions, such as strong winds, freezing temperatures, and heat. Its battery can last for an extended period without interruption.

"The aircraft's capabilities and its optical equipment allow it to operate from heights that are difficult to reach for most enemy air defense weapons," emphasized Deputy Defense Minister Dmytro Klimenkov.

For reference:

Rubryka reported that the Ministry of Defense will allocate an additional UAH 1.1 billion to purchase drones. These funds will be transferred directly to the brigades to finance critical needs.

The Ministry of Defense has also officially sanctioned and incorporated the domestically made TOKKO unmanned aerial vehicle system. Its kamikaze-style drones are designed to withstand enemy electronic interference.

In addition, the Ministry of Defense codified and approved using the new Ukrainian-made SOVA 10 UAV in the Defense Forces.
