< h2 > how many drones is required by Ukraine in 2025< p > according to him, it is precisely such a quantity to cover the front against the background of high efficiency of drones in combat conditions. < p > — On the front line with a length of 1200 km, about 80% of the hits falls on the drones – a regular tank, which is included in the defeat zone, survives an average of six minutes. But Russians also know how to use drones, so Ukraine calculated that this year will produce 4 million drones to cover this front line, ”said Cubilyus. ~ 60 > 62 > 62 > 62 > < p > he compared these needs with what the European Union could expect in the case of attack.
< p > — I began to count how many drones will be needed by EU or NATO member states in the event of an attack by Russia. Lithuania, my country, has 200 km of borders with Kaliningrad and 700 km with Belarus – we need about 3 million drones per year, ”he said.
< p > according to the European Commissioner, drones need regular updating every few months. traditional defense model, based on long -term contracts and predictability, no longer corresponds to the challenges of the modern war.
< p > this is the challenge that we discuss with NATO – how the goals should change by abilities in the new conditions, – said Cubilyus. < h2 > make drones in advance – not productive< p > European Commissioner shared the recommendation of Ukrainian specialists: to form teams from engineers, operators, designers and digital experts, create reserves of components, but not make drones in advance. Since it is not known in advance exactly which ones will be needed.
< p > In addition, Cubilyus noted the innovative approach of the Ukrainian side to the motivation of drone operators.
< p > destruction of the road of the Russian system gives 200 points, while only six for entering a soldier. Operators compete with each other, and the winners receive the best drones.
< p > — It is not only about drones, but also about a completely different approach to defense, ”the European Commissioner summed up.
