Since the beginning of 2025, Ukraine’s Defense Procurement Agency, a state-owned enterprise under the Ministry of Defense, has delivered 420,000 unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to the front.
The agency announced this on its Facebook page, Ukrinform reports.
“Since the start of 2025, 420,000 drones have been delivered to the frontline. UAV deployment remains a key priority. Each drone sent into combat reduces the occupier’s chances while increasing the opportunity to safeguard the lives of Ukrainian soldiers,” the statement read.
The Defense Procurement Agency also highlighted that 1.52 million UAVs have already been contracted for the year, thanks to coordinated efforts between the agency, the Ministry of Defense, and the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
As reported, the Ministry of Defense allocated over UAH 44 billion for the procurement of FPV drones, including fiber-optic drones, in 2025.
