According to Fedorov, the military has learned to operate turrets and ground platforms as quickly as possible and will soon employ them against the Russians on the battlefield.

"Robotic systems in combination with drones will help us hit the occupiers more effectively. There will be more technology at the front. We are working to this end 24/7", the minister emphasized.

As Ukrinform reported earlier, 1,000 units of equipment, including Ukrainian-made automated turrets and robotic ground platforms, are being sent to the front lines within the framework of the Army of Drones project.
