New production complex and jobs
The factory, covering an area of 11,000 square meters, will be equipped with its own testing ground for unmanned systems. The opening of the facility will create up to 500 new jobs, making a significant contribution to the development of the local economy. The start of serial production of drones is scheduled for early 2026.
Strategic partnership and innovations
The main goal of this project is to combine innovative Ukrainian developments in the field of unmanned systems with the expertise of British specialists in the aviation and defense sectors. This collaboration aims to create a modern manufacturing hub that can meet the needs of Ukraine, the United Kingdom, and partner countries for next-generation drones.
This will be the first large-scale drone factory in Europe built by a Ukrainian company outside of Ukraine.
Through the implementation of this ambitious project, Ukrspecsystems is expanding its presence in the international market and contributing to the development of the technological potential of Europe’s defense industry.
