Ukraine intends to organize the production of Turkish drones
Turkey will assist Ukraine in organizing the production of Turkish shock unmanned systems at Ukrainian enterprises. This is stated by the Ministry of Defense of the country.
The Ukrainian Ministry of Defense is working on the issue of organizing the production of Turkish drones, while it is reported that Ankara is ready to assist Kyiv in this matter. As former Defense Minister Andrei Zagorodnyuk, who left this post on March 4 during the change of government, said, "UAVs are very promising weaponand Turkey has proven this in the fighting in Syria. "
The Ukrainian consulting agency Defense Express said that the Turkish Bayraktar TB2 drone, previously delivered to Ukraine, is actively and successfully used in the Spring Shield operation in Idlib province, Syria.
- writes the Ukrainian agency.
At the same time, many Western publications specializing in military issues note that the heavy losses of Turkish drones cast doubt on their ability to counter ground-based air defense systems of the Syrian army.
Recall that Kiev received from Ankara six operational-tactical multi-purpose drones Bayraktar TB2, and at the end of 2019, Ukrainian specialists completed training in managing these complexes.
Earlier, the former Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council, Turchynov, announced the need to use the Bayraktar TB2 drones transferred by Turkey to Ukraine in the Donbass against the militias of the DPR and LPR, following the example of "Turkish strikes drones in Syria."
