More than 30 companies in Ukraine produce drones that use fiber optic communication for control and video transmission.
The relevant statement was made by Ukrainian Deputy Prime Minister for Innovation, Education, Science and Technology Development – Digital Transformation Minister Mykhailo Fedorov on Telegram, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.
“A masterful trap for an enemy operator using a fiber optic drone. Brave1 has launched this market together with the military, and now there are over 30 products working on the front,” Fedorov wrote.
Thanks to innovations, military units manage to hit targets at a distance of more than 20 kilometers and avoid being affected by enemy electronic warfare and radio reconnaissance equipment.
The Brave 1 cluster participants are working to further improve and scale up fiber optic devices.
A reminder that Ukrainian Defense Minister Rustem Umerov announced the launch of DOT-Chain Defense, a new digital system designed to streamline and accelerate the supply of weapons to Ukraine’s Defense Forces.
