Ukraine is launching a new drone supply model to slash delivery times to troops
Briefly

Ukraine is implementing a new drone supply model designed to expedite the delivery of UAVs to its military forces, reducing wait times from months to weeks. Defense Minister Rustem Umerov made the announcement after discussions with drone manufacturers, emphasizing the need for fast and uninterrupted supplies. This model is part of a broader strategy to digitize military logistics, building on previous funding initiatives to empower brigades with direct procurement capabilities. As drone warfare has become critical in the ongoing conflict, Ukraine has significantly increased its production capacity to meet demand.
The new supply model is designed to facilitate the 'fast and uninterrupted supply of the best UAVs for our soldiers,' reducing delivery times significantly.
Rustem Umerov emphasized that this shift not only streamlines delivery times but also provides manufacturers with advanced orders, allowing for better production planning.
Drone warfare has been at the core of the conflict in Ukraine since the full-scale invasion, showcasing the evolving technology's devastating capabilities.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy confirmed that Ukraine is on track to produce 4 million drones annually, with 1.5 million already contracted for 2024.
