Alex Noit, one of the coordinators of the \u201cUkrainian unmanned aerial vehicle\u201d project, a friend and a partner of the InformNapalm team, shared with us some new information regarding engineering and practical use of UAVs by the ATO structures.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, more than half a year since the start of this slow conflict between Ukraine and Russia (represented by Russian terrorist groups), we still have more bureaucracy and irrationality in supplying the army with visual reconnaissance equipment than common sense and effectiveness.<\/p>\n

\u201cCurrently, there\u2019s a lot of talk about the importance, the necessity, and the urgency of supplying Ukrainian Armed Forces, National Guard, and volunteer battalions with modern UAVs. Klimkin [Ukrainian Foreign Minister] is slowly negotiating with Israel to buy UAV kits for USD $600,000. In the Defense Ministry, a commission is conducting its meetings, researching something or other, then proudly showing to higher authorities clumsy copters, handmade by army officers and paid with their own salaries. Volunteers are asking for help from the National Aviation University, Kyiv Polytechnic Institute, or claiming to \u201con their own quickly put together UAVs for USD $3,000\u201d, but after all these months the situation still remains unchanged: we have no UAVs of the quality and in the quantities needed on the front lines.<\/p>\n

In the mean time, without much publicity, and with your help, my dear friends and followers, we are doing our job, making quadcopters that have been praised by the military and the intelligence officers, capable of 10 km reconnaissance range, with the best optics available in Ukraine or abroad. <\/p>\n

For comparison, here is how a quadcopter that costs EUR 30,000 sees the world (height less than 200 meters):<\/p>\n

Our quadcopter that costs several times less and has the range of 10 km, instead of 5 km, sees the world this way:<\/p>\n

\u201cDo you want improve Ukrainian made UAVs even further? Do you have the desire and the ability to help our warriors on the front lines to get these UAV? It is easy,\u201d says Alex.<\/p>\n

He asks all those who want to help, to donate money or to contact him for details on his Facebook page, Alex Noit<\/a>.<\/p>\n
