 Manufacturer of Bayraktar Attack Drones starts building a plant in Ukraine. The Turkish company Baykar has begun building a plant to produce Bayraktar Attack Drones in Ukraine. Oleksandr Kamyshin, Minister for Strategic Industries of Ukraine said it. The plant has actually started to be built, rather than just being a memorandum. This is the huge Bayraktar facility that we agreed on a few years ago. Back then, there were interruptions and scandals. The plant is now starting to be built and we have taken real steps, he said. On the 8th of July, the Minister of Strategic Industries signed a new memorandum with the Ministry of Industry and Technology of Turkey to develop capacities and capabilities for providing various types of UAVs. Kamyshin said these are other kinds of production that cannot be discussed at this time. In June, the Turkish company Baykar received licensing permits from the authorities to produce Bayraktar TB2 and Akinsi drones in Ukraine. Earlier, Baykar established production in Ukraine and acquired a land plot for construction. In 2019, Baykar established a Ukrainian subsidiary called Avia Ventures to open two plants in Ukraine. It is expected that Avia Ventures, on behalf of Baykar, will be responsible for the construction of the drone production facility.
