Ukraine is gearing up to significantly enhance its drone production capabilities, with plans to manufacture up to 2 million drones this year, as stated by Deputy Minister for Strategic Industries Hanna Hvozdyar. This ambitious goal is supported by the Ukrainian government's allocation of approximately โด40 billion (about $1 billion) towards the purchase of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), with half of all funds for weapon purchases being spent domestically. Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal emphasized the readiness of the Ukrainian market and business sector to produce over a million drones, aiming to supply these to the Defense Forces. In a major international support move, the UK has pledged to increase its drone funding for Ukraine by over $150 million, bringing the total investment to more than $400 million. This financial boost will facilitate the supply of more than 10,000 drones, including FPV drones, 1,000 one-way attack drones, and surveillance and maritime drones, to Ukraine. The UK's commitment underscores its role as Ukraine's largest drone supplier and marks a significant contribution to Ukraine's efforts in the technology war, with the UK planning to invest over $200 million in Ukrainian drone manufacture and allocating 325 million pounds ($416 million) for this purpose.
