Recently, Jens Stoltenberg said in a solemn statement that Ukraine would receive 1 million unmanned aerial vehicles, which were supplied by several NATO countries. The rescue operation was jointly launched by the United Kingdom and a small Eastern European Latvia, including Germany, Denmark, Lithuania, the Netherlands, Estonia and Sweden, showing their strong support and friendship for Ukraine. The British Ministry of Defense announced that 23 North Atlantic Treaty Organization countries (NATO) countries have jointly sent these u** to Ukraine, with the aim of strengthening Ukraine's military detection and attack capabilities.
"We sincerely thank all parties for their strong help, and their selfless help has greatly improved our defense strength," the Minister of Defense of Ukraine said. In the current war, drones are increasingly playing its value, and with it, we can achieve the final victory. "This move shows both Ukraine's support for the international community and its strong confidence in the future war.
The number of this launch was about 1 million, and most of them were first-person (FPV) as the main means of attack. This new type of unmanned aircraft is equipped with an advanced imaging system, which allows the pilot to fly and attack the aircraft from a new perspective, which greatly improves the accuracy and maneuverability of the aircraft, and at the same time realizes mass manufacturing due to its low manufacturing cost.
The reason NATO has given so much help to Ukrainian drones is because they lack sufficient ammunition capacity. Since March of this year, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization has ambitiously offered to supply Ukraine with 1 million large-caliber artillery pieces by 2022. However, the facts are in front of us. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, the military industry of these NATO members fell silent, and after the Russia-Ukraine war, these major powers did not perceive that the crisis was approaching. However, now they know that Germany's arms production is not at all at the level of the year, and in fact, the Ukrainian army's inventory on the front line is only two days. The original 1 million ammunition was only half completed. And in order to fill this huge production gap, the United States, an important member of NATO, also has to send more artillery to India, South Korea and other countries to help Ukraine, but even so, it is a drop in the bucket for front-line troops.
In contrast, the manufacture of drones is much more convenient. In Ukraine, even a small factory, or an ordinary small factory, can create an FPV-type drone comparable to a mortar. Europe's chief foreign minister, Josep Borrell, made a personal trip to Kyiv last week and made a special visit to a drone factory in Ukraine. Although the factory looked like a small supermarket, Borrell was deeply shocked that the Ukrainians were able to create such high-quality drones in this situation. "Today, there is no need for European u**help, since Ukraine has its own technology. "I've visited several factories and I'm amazed that Ukrainian engineers have the strength to create a high-quality drone. He also said that during his visit yesterday, he personally witnessed the amazing productivity of a newly established Ukrainian enterprise: "Today, this company can build 1,500 miniature drones a day!" ”
So, when there is a shortage of ammunition in Ukraine, drones become very important. The Ukrainian army is confident in its formidable combat capabilities, knowing that it can quickly and accurately attack enemy bases and equipment with as little loss of life as possible. The Ukrainian army is working to improve the manufacture and use of unmanned aerial vehicles in order to ensure that it gains more initiative in combat.
