i am not sure that we have as many of these fabs left as in russia, because they have them, because they have strategic bombers in their arsenal, which will drop all these bombs in the classic way with these carpet bombings, by the way, the same thing, what we saw during the storming of the siege of mariupol, to which we did not have the means to reach their strategic aircraft in any way, and here they were with their strategic... they just carried out these carpet bombings, such as we saw, you know , back in the day, probably the last one during the second world war, well, probably , the second world war, and they have this stockpile, i understand that we simply do not have a stockpile of these bombs, and then, taking into account what our partners supply us, let's say, more effective ammunition, we will... we

will talk a little more about the front line in the second half of the program, about baghmut , the use of drones in military operations, but now we have to take a break and let's come back after the break and continue our conversation. there are discounts on amexin ic 10% tablets. in pharmacies plantain to you and savings. there are discounts on pectelvan plyushch. 10% in podorozhnyk pharmacies for you and savings. bosnia and herzegovina-ukraine namego. the victory will allow to play in the match for qualification to euro-2024. therefore, our team needs your support. cheer on march 21 at 9:45 p.m. with mego. real bulgarian valerian. calms our nerves for years. there are discounts on valerian. bulgarian 10% in

you, mr. pharmacist. congratulations, i wish you health. tell us, you know, i guess, at first a little bit, what do you have on... on your directly, i understand, in the direction of bakhmut, has the intensity increased, decreased, more, less , are they now used in these, well, there , armored vehicles, that is, some such that what what's happening this week that you can celebrate? well, i can say only a banal thing, that the situation today is over the last week. stable is difficult, that is, there are no specifics and anything, well, they are stopped, everything is under the control of the armed forces, well, since you are, after all, dealing with drones,

then probably some such conversations should have reached you, about the fact that there was a speech by one of your colleagues, who said that no... closer sometimes the russians will go out there for some kind of such that literally every one of our soldiers will have a drone, then there appeared certain videos that the russians again spread, how they increase the production of drones. how do you generally assess the saturation of the front with drones and the ratio, i would said the saturation of the front with drones is very dense, very dense. of the two sides, what the enemy has, what we have, that is, i don't think that there is any parity with the enemy in terms of drones there and something else, i think that in my opinion that we are a little outnumbered, in

quality a little bit ahead, and this is great for us, mr. andriy, but we are talking about quality, how much we are able to maintain it and how much we are really able, well, at least not that we do not lose our advantage, where we can increase it, how do you think? well here a lot depends on the fact that, first of all, we are really making a lot of progress, i hope mr. herman, well, let's put it this way, will confirm my words that we have thanks to the fact that, by the way, the private sector ... and volunteers for the most part at the first stages , let's say, financed both production and improvement, and here i am personally acquainted with several manufacturers, including there fpv drones, well, these are people who, let's say, are quite fanatical about it, not even like some entrepreneurial activity,

a lot of people invest in it, but serhii yesterday, sternenko posted the first video of the ukrainian first drone with artificial artificial intelligence. in fact, it is just a system of capturing the target and further bringing the drone to the target without mandatory control of the operator at the last stage, where it was clearly stated there when the communication itself already disappears, but at the same time the drone still seems to be there for 10 or 15 seconds in let's say to the automatic mode in the homing mode, if it is more correct in the homing mode to hit the target further. and this is very good, hopefully there is information about that, for example, canada is interested in buying specifically ukrainian fpv drones, there is some development with us in terms of the combat part as well, this is very good, but at the same time it is not

necessary, let's say, to immediately throw our enemy off the scales, because that's what's good about our enemy, that they sometimes, they know how to replace quality with... quantity, and a very large quantity, but in general , i think that progress, especially, well, over the last year, is very big, plus, well, let's be honest, that our... boys, our fighters, which use drones, also they , well, probably are, no, probably they are the best in the world with the most experience, ah, hopefully we will keep the same pace, first of all, the evolution, the technological evolution and the improvement of our own drones of various types, and this will allow us to, say, intercept even if the russians are really very actively scaling there, although that's also a very big question, because... well , they often make very effective throws in terms of their ability to scale there, actually

that , which refers to technological production they, especially new ones for them, may always have certain problems with this, but we hope that the pace of technological progress in our fpv drones, and we will keep it, further increase and develop it, maybe our manufacturers will also help us in this and foreign investment, it is very good because it is development. of our domestic military industry, and well, in the future , nevertheless, nevertheless, the enemy, i think for now, well, i should completely write it off there, since, as mr. herman said, and as my comrades who are now on the front line say, that indeed, in terms of the number of parities, but in terms of quality , we still have an advantage, albeit a small one, but we still see those videos that you mentioned, but when we flew there, we lost connection at a certain moment, well i.e. this... we have, well, mr. herman , look, we have already started

to talk a little bit about and and about the possibilities of production and about the possibilities of procurement, as now what could you tell us about this, i.e. the specifics of procurement , you are now mostly volunteer birds, don't you have them? some, well, without specifying, of course, but there is some stable manufacturer with whom you work. there is also a permanent manufacturer with which we work , there is also a volunteer one, and, roughly speaking, there is the ministry of defense, plus ksv, that is , drones come from various sources, well, in this whole, in general, why do i say that there is a problem with you always said that the problem is that this is , so to speak, a technological thing that is developing very quickly, and if you buy it, well, there will be a million drones,

cool, everything, everything is fine, well, if on such a scale buy, and we will lose this one our flexibility, yes, that we can change something, something, well, adapt to, because at the front it changes, everyone there, roughly speaking, there, every two, two weeks, if something changes, yes, new employees, new means, as it were... they have damage, we have new means of damage, that is, these one frequencies are jammed there, it is necessary to switch to others, that is, it is such a thing, it is constantly in dynamics, and that is why they will be bought, and them, and this obviously, today we already feel that the state is already buying them and they are reaching us, everything is fine, but if they will... come in very large batches, then there is such a story that maybe by the time they

reach the army, they will be irrelevant, and it will have to be reworked in order to fight, uh, such and such a story, it's interesting, it's interesting , that is, i understand that something has already reached you from those state programs, but somehow you would not see the need for this state program. to scale it up so much, so much, yes, yes, i understood you correctly, no, look, it is possible to scale it up, well, that is, you know that at the moment the order of the president there is a new army, yes, well, it's great, cool, i think it's great, well, there is one thing, well, i think it will happen, but we need people who will at least advise this new army. in order for it to be cool, there must be people from the units there who, as if on a combat

survey, have already been working with these drones for a year and a half, they understand how it all changes, in which direction, that is, they know these dynamics, they know the tactics the use of these drones, and then it will be, i think it will be, well, i'm probably just hoping for it, so i'm not saying, that this is not needed centrally there. it's good that for now these drones are relevant, but i'm saying that it can happen that they will cease to be, like when large batches, they will cease to be relevant, and that... we need them there, well, i don't know , that is, of course, the motors are there, the frame is there and everything else , it won’t go anywhere there, yes, but roughly speaking, there is the connection and everything else, it can change, and it should be understood simply, well, that ’s how it is then, you know , the task seems to me with an asterisk, because from the motor frame,

ok, you can mass produce and produce in large quantities, but what do you say? this is a kind of very necessary flexibility, mr. andriy , but how exactly will this flexibility be ensured , it needs to be reformed and improved, first of all, our legislation on procurement by the ministry of defense for the army, why, because here i am as an example, well there, for example, the united of the united states of america, here they can prescribe you, mr. herman will understand me, there is a very clear specification, modification, and here, for example, to say, we buy them for 100 00. we don’t need them yet produced in six months, then this modification or a certain type of modernization will cease to be relevant, so it is good that the state gives, let's say, a message and a guarantee, it says: we are ready to buy a million drones in a year, but it is necessary, for example, to say that even one and the same drone model, you don’t need to clearly

describe its characteristics, it can be one model, but, for example, in january the army will receive version... 1.0, already in december there will be version 12:00 , that is, it is a drone that will be available in a year, while it will be purchased well, for example, very roughly speaking , there will be 12 modernizations , one of its models will receive, it will have 12 modifications, it is good that the state, let's say, sends a message to manufacturers that they can count on such a volume of purchases, accordingly, from this further understand how much they can invest. to expand it, and another model, what to move away from, well, from this one , there is a lot of talk about it, it does not only apply to drones or uavs, well, let’s say, also from such a conventionally somewhat rigid procurement system, which does not give high-tech weapons flexibility in order to purchase them, because the manufacturer can make

a new modification, the ministry of defense simply will not accept it, for example, because they will say that it differs in tactical and technical terms. well, yes, it is important, because the people who are responsible for it, they also do not want to sit down because they bought something that is not written somewhere, but we understand that from approval to direct purchase, well , hikes, 5 months pass, that is, well, i also support mr. herman very much in that necessarily, it's simply mandatory that there should be... well, the ministry of defense, for example, or in this new type of army , a certain group can be created right there under its command, which will necessarily advise the ministry of defense , or even establish communication somewhere between the ministry of defense, manufacturers, this should be a three-way

story, so that the army really, well, unfortunately, we have a rather limited and monetary resource to use it... and for that , so that exactly what is purchased fighters need, not what will go there , well, in the best case, for spare parts, well , look, we know about a thousand drones, but there is a reverse side of this story, which is called electronic warfare, and the program there, i don’t know, not a thousand drones, a million, millions of some trench sparrows there, we didn't hear anything, is it supposed to be the same story, mr. herman, or how is it supposed to be? well, how to work with this, because it is also relevant, well, actually, well, it is relevant, well, to say that i cannot say that we do not have enough there, not that it is not enough, that we have there are no rebs or anything, they are there, they work and work well in different brigades, in different lanes, that is, the rebs should develop,

well, again, it should be synergy, yes. er, our direction, i mean uavs, shocks, scouts, if there is no interaction with the rap units, you simply lose your sides, if you do not have interaction with intelligence, you also kind of just lose your sides, that is, this is a synergy intelligence, rebarera and e-e shock drones, it doesn't matter which ones. big, small, there dear ones, that is, if that all interaction is established, then everything is fine , well, sir, you know, also, if you look at all this, well... on our capabilities there, starting from the 14th year, at one time, very much advanced the quality in general

artillery works, that is, the creation of the nettle system and the integration of many units there, maybe it is worth talking about the integration of the entire system, as well as unmanned systems of some kind and everyone who works with it, maybe it should be a different system, what do you think about this, how realistic is it at all. well, today the units work with different systems, such as nettles, eyes, delta, that is, the tower, we have, if, today, a wide range of these, means, some are better in one aspect, others are better in another aspect, but we, er, take what... gives us the maximum information and interaction with other units, that is, if one tool does not work, we take the other, if, as it were, we can currently

use three or four there in order that, because different subdivisions, again, different systems, with different systems work, so it's like we have to be flexible again in this matter, and it is developing there. is developing normally, absolutely , we have if fire control and interaction, everything is there, that is, yes, there, it should improve, if all this, well, i see that it is improving, and interaction is improving, well, mr. andrei, but here look, now mr. herman is talking about several options, and such a system, and such, and such, well, it's all the same, just like it's too much. does it even make sense to bring it up all to some kind of one system where everyone would be integrated? you know, if mr. herman, who

is right now and says that he is working, developing, working, allows, different systems allow you to understand which system, under the condition of a certain assessment of the combat situation, or under the condition of understanding with whom you should cooperate and communicate, use. the best tool for this, you don’t need to engage in, i think, sovietism, that’s what it’s called, make such a big salad, shove everything into one, and it won’t work as effective as possible in any type of situation, and well, this is such a serious system, the only thing i would like to add, for example, is that trench raps are actually, this is very important, but nevertheless, trench rap is, a thing that, well something, let's say, should work in a certain situation, we also want , probably, that it might be expedient to do this in our country, including as a unit of this

newly created type of troops, these are troops that deal with uavs, drones, which on the example of our the enemy, which has had separate electronic warfare troops since 2008, so-called, and also including in parallel with development. trench rebs must be engaged in as well, and let's say larger ones of a different level, not only trench reb - this is a tactical level after all, but it is also worth dealing with the development of systems of the operational-tactical level, which will allow, well , a larger spectrum tasks to be performed than exclusively trench reb. thank you, thank you, gentlemen, for joining us, thank you andriy kramarov, an officer of the air force reserve of the armed forces of ukraine, and thank you herman, aka. tsevt, commander of the strike group azgard of the ochi unit, i remind you of our collection of vehicles for the front, it is a collection of land cruisers for the aerial reconnaissance group of the main
