Weapons production in Ukraine
In recent years, Ukraine has significantly expanded its weapons and drone production, surpassing its UAV production targets in 2024.
Last year, Defense Minister Rustem Umerov stated that in 2025, the country’s defense industry would ramp up weapons manufacturing, including drones and long-range weapons, particularly ballistic missiles.
Additionally, the Ministry recently launched its own production of codified FPV drones.
Meanwhile, the Ukrainian Armed Forces have introduced a logistics robot into service.
