In 2024, Ukraine managed to increase the production of long-range UAVs tenfold compared to the previous year.
Minister of Digital Transformation Mykhailo Fedorov shared this information in an interview with Welt.
“Most of the drones that attacked Russian oil refineries have a range of 700 to 1000 kilometers, but now there are models that can fly over 1000 kilometers”, he noted.
According to the minister, the outcome depends on the development of drones. He predicts that the first prototypes of AI-equipped drones in small quantities may appear on the battlefield by the end of 2024. However, according to the official, it is currently impossible to say who is winning the technological war.
“However, it is currently impossible to say who is winning the technological war – in some areas, we are winning, while in others, the Russians outperform us”, the minister added.
