Ukraine creates analog of Chinese Mavic drone

The Ukrainian Defense Industry reports.

"Over the weekend, we gathered 8 manufacturers of such drones at different stages of readiness. Two of them have already been codified," the statement says.

So far, 6 teams have already completed flight missions: a 10 km flight at an altitude of over 250 meters and a target search. This was a demonstration for the General Staff, the Unmanned Systems Command, the Logistics Forces Command, government procurement, and military units.

The military assessed the quality of the products and talked directly to the manufacturers about the characteristics, features, and production capabilities.

The company showed a video of the first demonstration flights of these products.

• Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that over 800 Western companies are currently involved in the production of weapons for the Ukrainian army.
