 Ukraine became a global leader in drone production. Ukraine has become a global leader in drone production and its Western partners are studying the experience of Ukrainian companies, said National Security and Defense Council Secretary Olexi Danilov. Our country is surely among the top three countries in the world that produce this equipment and it is already so top notch that our partners are consulting with us today, he said. They study the equipment produced by our private companies. A significant amount of products from the Defense Ministry is manufactured by private companies because they switch to military production very quickly. Danilov said Ukraine's security service listed a new naval drone, the Kossak Mamai, as the fastest object in the Black Sea. Kiev plans to produce a million first person view drones, widely in demand on the front line and more than 11,000 medium and long range attack drones this year. Ukraine's Minister for Strategic Industries said Ukraine intensively used FPV drones, small drones originally for personal civilian use, but modified for the battlefield since the first days of the 2022 Russian invasion as a cheap but effective option for reconnaissance and attacks. The tactic was subsequently adopted by Moscow's troops, now estimated to have many more such drones at their disposal. All production facilities are ready for 2024. Olexandr Kamyshin, the Minister said Ukraine's drone deployment has evolved with the changing battlefield.
