Special Report: Ukrainian defence manufacturers showcase UAVs to UK

Twelve Ukrainian drone manufacturers demonstrated their systems to British industry, investors and military officials at Larkhill Garrison on Salisbury Plain on October 30. The inaugural Ukraine Drone Demonstration Day was supported by the UK Ministry of Defence's National Armaments Director Group and combined live demonstrations with discussions on investment, co-development and production partnerships. Participants included Airlogix, Ukrspecsystems, Vyriy Industries and UForce, presenting technologies shaped by operational experience in Ukraine. The event sought to connect Ukrainian developers with UK industrial capacity and defence users, building cooperation opportunities without itself constituting a procurement award.
