According to the expert, Ukraine already has a network of localized manufacturing facilities specializing in various components for drones. This includes the production of thermal imagers, motors, work with carbon materials, and the creation of flight stacks.
“All of this is a huge ecosystem of Ukrainian businesses, which includes over 700 different players actively collaborating to maximize the localization of supply chains and manufacturing components”
, claims Yakovenko.
Ukraine – A Global Leader in Drone Manufacturing
As of today, according to Yakovenko, Ukraine produces more drones than China, which is a significant achievement for the domestic technology sector. The advantage is that every component of the drone has Ukrainian origins or its analogs produced in the country. This indicates active scaling of production and growth of the domestic market.
Artificial intelligence plays a special role in the development of the industry, being widely used in the creation of ground robotic complexes. These systems are already beginning to appear en masse along the front line, enhancing the country’s defense capabilities and technological potential.
International Recognition of Ukrainian Technologies
Ukrainian specialists in drone technology and robotics are receiving increasing invitations for collaboration from foreign companies. This reflects the country’s high reputation as a leader in this field. According to experts, our developments set the tone and have great potential for further development and export.
