> FMA mainly purchases drones from Ukrainian manufacturers, but also purchases drones from suppliers in Norway and other countries.
So not just buying drones for UA, but also financing their local development, I guess.
Not sure how this fits with earlier reports of Ukraine producing 500k drones pr month - but I suspect it's different kinds/roles of drones.
Article image shows workshop making mid range drones (~$10K kind). Big numbers are for couple $hundred quads used to frag individual soldiers.
Great News ! Where can I donate, I despise Putin, unfortunately the ones on the deadly end of the drone attack are common Russian men being swept off the street.
