The Defense Procurement Agency has signed a contract with a Ukrainian manufacturer for the supply of ground-based kamikaze drones.

This was reported by the press service of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine.

«We are working to ensure a stable supply of not only unmanned aerial vehicles, but also ground-based kamikaze drones, which should become a powerful tool in the hands of our military. These drones are an important component of our defense strategy, as they can effectively carry out the task of defeating the enemy,» noted Dmytro Klimenkov.

In addition, the Defense Procurement Agency also concluded an agreement for the supply of ammunition.

«We continue to buy from Ukrainian manufacturers the most necessary weapons for the Armed Forces: from ammunition to modern technological solutions, such as ground drones. In total, within the framework of this visit, we concluded agreements worth more than 3.7 billion hryvnias,» said Director of the Defense Procurement Agency Marina Bezrukova.

It will be recalled that on July 31, the Russian army attacked public transport in Kherson with a drone.
