Ukraine's drone industry seeks to tip scales against Russia
Issued on:
With suit-clad staff sipping coffees, Skyeton’s offices in Ukraine's Kyiv region look like a typical tech start-up. But the company, whose exact location is kept secret, is actually a drone-manufacturing hub for the Ukrainian armed forces, churning out unmanned aerial vehicles to support the country's defence against the Russian invasion. "Russians have a huge advantage in terms of the number of people, tanks, airplanes, and money," explains Skyeton's Technical Director, Maksym Levkivsky. "So, the only way for us to win is to have a technological advantage," he adds.
