Ukraine has become the world’s top producer of FPV drones, manufacturing over 2.2 million units, with a goal to continue expanding its defense industrial base to meet the demands of modern warfare. This growth has been achieved through significant investments and contracts, with over $35 billion already secured.
The country’s production drive goes beyond drones, with increased manufacturing of missiles, electronic warfare systems, and ground robotic platforms, with over 50% of materials now sourced locally, marking a critical milestone for Ukraine’s defense industry and its aim to become self-reliant in defense manufacturing.
