Ukraine is working on finding a replacement for the Chinese Mavic drones and is developing a Ukrainian analogue, Defense Minister Mykhailo Fedorov said.
"It is important to find a replacement for the Mavic and other Chinese drones. We are already testing a certain solution this month. We will have our own analogue of the Mavic: the camera is the same, but the flight distance is longer," Fedorov said during a meeting with journalists.
He stressed the need to "develop this direction."
