🇺🇦🚀 Ukrainian Drone Makers Launch Mavic Alternatives for Military Use
⚙️ Ukrainian manufacturers unveiled the first domestically-produced analogues to the Chinese DJI Mavic drones, widely used for reconnaissance and targeting, Ukrinform reports. The initiative aims to reduce reliance on foreign suppliers amid Chinese export restrictions.
🔧 Ukraine’s Ministry of Strategic Industries hosted the presentation, highlighting the locally developed UAVs' ability to operate under intense electromagnetic interference, a frequent issue on the battlefield. Unlike civilian drones modified for military use, these systems are purpose-built for Ukraine’s military needs.
🎯 While similar in operation to Mavics, the Ukrainian drones offer superior resistance to electronic warfare, ensuring greater functionality in contested airspace. Ukraine’s drone production capacity has grown more than tenfold in 2024, with further scaling expected to reduce costs.
