— No ceiling. Thousands of these drones can be produced. Thousands have already been produced. And almost every day something is burning somewhere in Russia. That is, it can be scaled, — Fedorov assures.
He noted that thanks to the state program Army of Drones, funding for which began in the summer of 2023, within six months Ukraine has caught up with Russia in the number of such drones.
— Russia must understand that we will continue to scale, we have just begun the technological struggle, — added the Deputy Prime Minister.
Regarding the production of drones like the Russian Lancet, the head of the Ministry of Digital Development says that we have up to seven manufacturers who have already created a similar product.
Mikhail Fedorov also announced the appearance of an improved version of the Magura naval attack drones, which sank the Russian missile boat Ivanovets.
