According to the results, the companies will compete among themselves for contracts from the Ministry of Defense.

EW was added to the drone regulations so that companies would have a margin, so that it would be easier to conclude contracts, the minister added.

As noted, the Ministry of Defense has already started active contracting of REB. Fedorov also mentioned the possible creation of a separate REB brigade.

Earlier, Minister Fedorov said that the means of radio-electronic warfare will get into the troops sooner, since their admission to operation will be based on the act of joint departmental tests or on the basis of the results of the study of the stated tactical and technical characteristics.

What is known about the production of Ukrainian weapons

Earlier, Oleksandr Kamyshin, the Minister of Strategic Industry, announced that Ukraine had established mass production of the domestic analogue of "Shakheds".

Ukraine is also developing its own analogue of the Russian Lancet kamikaze drone, which is already being tested at the front.

In addition, Mykhailo Fedorov reported that Ukraine has already overtaken the Russian Federation in terms of the number of long-range kamikaze drones. According to him, an improved version of the MAGURA marine drone is expected to appear.
