🚨 Dmytro Kuleba warned about a deficit of missile defense systems in Ukraine in 2026. The former head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs noted the absence of short-term prospects for fully resolving the problem of intercepting ballistic targets. 🇺🇦 🔹 Production capacities of partners cannot cope with the volumes of Patriot missile supplies. 🔹 The defense strategy is currently based on situational interception and pressure on the infrastructure of the Russian Federation. 🔹 Experts insist on the creation of their own pan-European anti-ballistic program. #Ukraine #AirDefense #Kuleba #Patriot #Security

🚀 Vyriy Industries announced the combat deployment of the SLAVIC reconnaissance complex. The drone operates for 1.5 hours and can be mastered without training — experience with DJI Mavic is sufficient. ⚖️ Amid the company's success: in July, the SBI conducted searches at CEO Alexey Babenko's premises. Vyriy insists on innocence and calls the inspections the result of an info-attack, claiming their drones are 25% cheaper than market rates. 🇺🇦 As a result, the company is preparing to scale production despite the pressure. #Vyriy #SLAVIC #Drones #Ukraine
