Kiev, March 7, 2024, 22:30 - IA Regnum. Britain will transfer more than 10 thousand unmanned aerial vehicles to Ukraine, British Defense Minister Grant Shapps said on March 7 during a visit to Kiev. This was reported on the website of the Royal Defense Ministry.
For this purpose, Kyiv is going to allocate another 125 million pounds sterling ($160 million). They will complement the £200 million ($254 million) funding package for the acquisition of another batch of drones, the delivery of which was announced in January by British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak.
According to journalists, London plans to transfer mainly FPV drones to Kyiv, as well as about a thousand attack drones, sea UAVs and unmanned reconnaissance equipment.
As Regnum reported, on February 3, The Wall Street Journal wrote that due to the slowdown in Western aid supplies, Ukraine was planning to produce 1 million FPV drones in 2024. The assembly of these devices should be carried out by small workshops on Ukrainian territory.
On February 17, Bloomberg reported that Britain and its allies are developing new drones with artificial intelligence (AI) technology. This will allegedly allow Ukraine to compensate for its acute shortage of artillery. Such drones will be able to interact with each other and will be directed to the target automatically.
