Ukraine continues to introduce innovations in the production of unmanned aerial vehicles and assembled a prototype of the first FPV drone, made exclusively from components produced in Ukraine, the American Institute for the Study of War (ISW) reported on December 20.
"A Ukrainian drone company reported that it recently assembled a prototype of the first FPV drone made exclusively from components manufactured in Ukraine," reads the report.
"Ukraine also continues to innovate aerial drone production. The Ukrainian General Staff reported that Ukrainian officials completed tests of a drone attached to fiber optic cables that will be more resistant to electronic warfare (EW) interference. Russian forces have recently fielded such drones in Kursk region and Ukraine," it says.
