Quote: "The production capacity of the Ukrainian drone industry increased more than 10 times in 2024 compared to 2023," the statement said.

It is noted that the number of investments in 2024 amounted to up to US$50 million, whereas in 2023, this figure was up to US$5 million.

At the same time, the average investment increased from US$500,000 to US$1-3 million.

Production capacity, according to the Ministry of Digital Transformation, increased from 300,000 drones in 2023 to 4 million in 2024.

Background: Ukraine plans to lift the ban on drone exports as state resources are insufficient to cover all military needs for unmanned aerial vehicles, making it necessary to attract funds for their production.
