Why can’t the war be won with drones alone, and what role do assault units play in modern warfare? How…
Ukraine has built a new air defence architecture that combines traditional means, interceptor drones and networked systems that are changing the rules of modern warfare.
This was reported on the website of the Ministry of Defence of Ukraine.
This was stated by Deputy Minister of Defence of Ukraine Hanna Hvozdiyar during the parliamentary discussion “Drone Protection for UK Soldiers – Learning from Ukraine” in the House of Lords of the United Kingdom.
“For almost four years our air defence system has gone through a path of transformation: from a relatively expensive traditional system to a flexible, multi-layer model where high-tech complexes operate in interaction with mass, economically efficient solutions. This is a story about the adaptability and ingenuity of Ukrainians — we are not only defending ourselves, we are shaping new security standards in the wars of the future”, — Hanna Hvozdiyar said.
The deputy head of the defence ministry took part in the discussion online.
Within the event, British parliamentarians, defence sector representatives and Ukrainian innovators discussed Ukraine’s practical experience in countering UAVs and the possibilities of applying it in NATO and UK approaches.
Hanna Hvozdiyar emphasised that the Ukrainian approach is based on practicality, rapid implementation of solutions and the ability to constantly adapt to new challenges.
She thanked the House of Lords of the United Kingdom for its consistent and systematic support of Ukraine, in particular for facilitating the transfer of interception means for air defence and the initiative to develop production of Ukrainian interceptor drones. She stressed that close cooperation in technological development makes our armies stronger and increases the security of the entire free world.
