More than ten leading Ukrainian companies are actively testing their own missile developments of various purposes at testing grounds. This includes dozens of innovative models of cruise and surface-to-air missiles with different characteristics and ranges. According to Andriy Hrytsenko, the director of the Brave1 defense cluster, there is currently a lack of developments in the field of ballistic and surface-to-air missiles, which is why the Brave1 platform has initiated grant competitions to stimulate the creation of such types of weapons.

Intensive Development of Robotic Complexes and FPV Drones
In the last two years, over 200 new developments have emerged in the segment of ground robotic complexes, and today there are already 500 manufacturers of FPV drones operating in Ukraine. This indicates a high pace of development in the domestic defense industry and a growth in innovative solutions in the market.
“More than 10 Ukrainian companies are actively testing their missiles at testing grounds. This includes dozens of developments of cruise and surface-to-air missiles with various ranges and characteristics.”
New Technologies and Mass Production of Drones with Targeting
The Brave1 platform has conducted final tests of strike kamikaze drones capable of overcoming enemy electronic warfare systems and hitting targets at distances of over 40-50 kilometers. The launch of these solutions for serial use on the front line is expected very soon.
Additionally, the company Vyriy, one of the leaders in the Ukrainian drone market, together with The Fourth Law, a leading developer of autonomy systems, has announced the start of large-scale production of drones with targeting capabilities. By installing an artificial intelligence module on the drone, the effectiveness of hitting targets increases by 2-4 times, while the cost of the product only rises by 10%.
