The press service of the Defence Intelligence of Ukraine reports.

"Black Hawk for the Defence Intelligence of Ukraine - a new impetus for the charity campaign! Our friends in the Czech Republic want to purchase a Sikorsky UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter for Ukrainian military intelligence officers," the statement says.

The Defence Intelligence of Ukraine already has several such aircraft in service, which are successfully used in operations to destroy the invading Russian forces.

In total, almost $3 million is needed to buy the helicopter. Two-thirds of this amount has already been raised, Ukrainian intelligence emphasized.

"We thank all those who care in the Czech Republic and throughout Europe who joined the initiative and continue to support Ukraine's resistance! Our friends have given a new impetus to the charity campaign to strengthen the Defense Intelligence and found a cheaper and better quality Black Hawk in the United States," the report says.

You can join the helicopter fundraiser here.

  • For 2025, the Czech Republic has found a significant amount of already manufactured ammunition around the world that can be purchased for the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
