The Ukrainian servicemen currently use about 70 models of drones for various purposes.

Deputy Minister of Defense of Ukraine, Lieutenant General Ivan Havryliuk, said this in his interview with ArmiyaInform.

The Ukrainian Armed Forces also use more than 20 different types of ammunition for drones.

“Today, the Armed Forces of Ukraine operate about 70 modifications of unmanned aerial vehicles and more than 20 different types of ammunition for UAVs,” said the Deputy Minister of Defense of Ukraine.

In November, Minister for Strategic Industries of Ukraine Oleksandr Kamyshin announced that the Ukrainian defense industry had launched mass production of attack drones similar to Iran’s Shahed-136.

According to the minister, dozens of kamikaze drones are currently being mass-produced per month. He noted that these are new drones that have not been publicly presented before.

Ukroboronprom also mastered the production of FPV drones in its facilities to meet the needs of the Ukrainian army.

The Defense Forces are using new domestically produced drones of various types to fight the Russian invaders.

The Ukrainian new Backfire strike drone made at least 50 successful missions, Mykhailo Fedorov, Deputy Prime Minister of Ukraine for Innovation, Education, Science and Technology—Minister for Digital Transformation said.

The drone ranges up to 35 kilometers behind enemy lines and helps to hit Russian artillery, logistics hubs, depots, and command posts.

Thanks to a GPS antenna that is almost impossible to jam, the drone is very resistant to electronic warfare systems.

In addition, Ukraine has developed a powerful new warhead to equip drones, the detailed specifications of which have not been disclosed. The tests of the new warhead were successful: the explosion destroyed three armor plates placed one after the other. The first and second armor plates (50 mm and 16 mm thick, respectively) were completely destroyed, and the third one (16 mm thick) was dented.
