Ukrainian Companies to Participate in Ramstein's Drone Coalition Tenders for the First Time

For the first time, Ukrainian manufacturers of UAV technologies will be able to participate in tenders organized by the Drone Coalition co-led by Latvia and UK in the Ramstein format.

This was reported by Ukraine’s Defense Ministry.

The series of tenders includes two lots: for producing advanced FPV drones and interceptor drones. 

Companies that win the tenders will receive orders for the production of drones for further testing and evaluation. If the test results are successful, a large-scale order of FPV drones from the winning companies follows.

“The goal of this coalition is to ensure the industrial production of FPV drones to create a long-term technological advantage over the enemy. It is important not only to scale up production in the West but also to support Ukrainian companies capable of producing such equipment. Therefore, for the first time, we are involving domestic manufacturers to participate in tenders," said Kateryna Chernohorenko, Deputy Minister of Defense of Ukraine for Digital Development.

The Drone Coalition, co-led by Latvia and the United Kingdom, was created during the 19th meeting in the Rammstein format in February 2022. The Coalition includes 16 partner countries that ensure a stable supply of drones to Ukraine.
