Ukrainian forces are actively using the AI platform Avengers in their war against Russia, which helps identify a large number of enemy targets, according to the Ukrainian Defense Ministry.

The defenders automatically detect 12,000 enemy targets weekly using Avengers.

The Ministry emphasizes that this platform allows drone operators to make decisions faster and more effectively, reducing the risk of errors due to fatigue. The integration operates within the streaming module VEZHA of the DELTA combat system.

"The Avengers platform, developed by the Defense Ministry’s Innovation Center, is unique in the world for its volume of video on enemy equipment. We continue to develop Avengers and other AI solutions to give our military an advantage. We plan to expand the platform's cloud capabilities and integrate AI solutions into drones," said Deputy Defense Minister Kateryna Chernohorenko.

The Innovation Center is also improving the Avengers platform to enhance the quality of enemy equipment recognition, particularly regarding equipment hidden in forests.

Background

In July, it was reported that the Ukrainian DELTA combat system passed NATO standards checks.

This system allows for the creation of a real-time digital battlefield map, enabling military personnel to exchange information.
