In Ukraine, citizens like Anton, a software developer, are assembling drones at home to support the military’s needs amid the ongoing conflict with Russia. Since Russia’s 2022 invasion, Ukraine has significantly increased domestic drone production, with the government allocating $2 billion to produce at least 1 million FPV drones. President Zelenskyy announced that Ukraine contracted 1.5 million drones this year and can produce 4 million annually. The effort involves the government, military, private companies, and citizens. A new armed forces branch, the Unmanned Systems Forces, focuses on drone warfare.
