— Our war to restore territorial integrity is the first full-scale drone war. There are several new countries that have joined the drone coalition and made contributions. The results of this coalition will be the first deliveries of drones to Ukraine in March. We are also discussing the possibility of investing in the Ukrainian production of UAVs, which have already shown their effectiveness on the battlefield, — the official indicated.
He further announced the transfer to the Defense Forces from the Allies of another key element of combat — ammunition.
— They will! This was the main topic of the meeting. Partners have announced assistance packages that include 155 mm, 152 mm, 105 mm artillery shells and others. We are grateful to our partners for searching and finding ammunition all over the world, which is so necessary to repel the aggressor, — emphasized Umerov.
Also, according to the head of the Ministry of Defense, the partners intend to increase the number of missiles for air defense systems in order to protect the skies over Ukraine. Agreements on fourth-generation fighters have also moved forward F-16.
— We are actively working with all involved partners: the USA, Denmark, Belgium, the Netherlands, Romania and others so that the planes are in Ukraine as quickly as possible, — Umerov summarized.
