The Ukrainian Defense Forces have been reinforced with FPV drones equipped with a thermal imaging camera. A batch of 500 drones was handed over to the military by the Serhiy Prytula Charity Foundation. This batch cost UAH 18,749,500.

It was purchased thanks to donations from people who cared and support from Uklon and Fest Lokal. "Summer is over, daylight hours are shortening, so we are sending another large batch to the units - 500 10-inch FPV drones with thermal imaging cameras!" said Prytula. The foundation noted that these drones were "effective in cutting logistics routes and destroying enemy equipment during its night time movement.

And this is not their only purpose."
