"Modern warfare is a war of data, speed, and precise decisions. This is exactly how the Army of Drones.Bonus program works today, which has become a game-changer on the battlefield. Unique data about the front line, quality motivation for military personnel, and an innovative approach to unit orders through Brave1 Market — we have built a system that delivers measurable results here and now," Fedorov wrote.
