Since the beginning of 2023, the production of drones in Ukraine has grown more than 100 times, and by the end of the year, “if compared with the previous one, this will be an increase of approximately 120-140 times”.
This was stated by the Deputy Prime Minister for Innovation, Development of Education, Science and Technology — Minister of Digital Transformation Mikhail Fedorov in an interview with Reuters, commenting on the recent attacks in temporarily occupied Crimea.
— There will be more drones, more attacks and fewer Russian ships. That's for sure, — he assured.
Now they are watching
According to him, Ukraine is testing artificial intelligence systems that can find targets several kilometers away and send drones to them, even if external communications are disrupted by electronic warfare.
Fedorov noted that these systems are now being tested, but some drones that Ukraine is buying already use artificial intelligence to recognize targets.
