In the Svatove direction, border guards, using an FPV drone, successfully destroyed an enemy electronic warfare station named 'Pole-21,' according to the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine on Telegram.

The border reconnaissance unit detected the EW station, and operators of FPV drones took action. The drone precisely targeted the metallic structure containing crucial components of the system, according to the report.

Drone production in Ukraine

During the full-scale invasion, the issue of drones has become one of the most critical on the front. The Minister of Defense of Ukraine, Oleksii Reznikov, announced that the Armed Forces of Ukraine now possess over 20 new types of domestically-produced drones.

Furthermore, due to the simplification of procedures for developers and manufacturers of weaponry and military equipment, Ukraine has experienced a true boom in drone production.

Recently, it was reported that the Ministry of Digital Transformation aims to scale up the success of using UAVs on the frontlines and create the "Radio Electronic Warfare Army" and the "Robot Army."
