Innovative AI Drone for Ukrainian Forces
The Brave1 team, in collaboration with the Third Assault Brigade, has unveiled a cutting-edge drone equipped with artificial intelligence. This drone is capable of striking targets from over 50 km away, as reported by Mykhailo Fedorov, Ukraine's First Deputy Prime Minister.
He noted that many defense innovations in Ukraine are born right on the battlefield through the ideas of military engineers. This is how the drone named "Dolphin Spider" came to be. Its development originated in the R&D laboratory of the 3rd Assault Brigade.
The drone is named in honor of a fallen comrade of the developers. Engineers from the Third Assault Brigade worked together with Omnitech to create it, while Brave1 facilitated its integration into military units.
According to Fedorov, the "Dolphin Spider" outperforms foreign counterparts in key metrics and can autonomously navigate the terrain using AI algorithms.
He emphasized that the primary function of the drone is to provide reliable communication for strike UAVs deep in enemy territory. Thanks to this, Ukrainian drones can appear where the enemy least expects them. The "Troika" has already been successful in targeting enemy air defense systems, logistics, and other priority objectives using the "Dolphin Spider".
Additionally, recently President Volodymyr Zelensky signed a law that increases security and defense spending by 412 billion UAH. Of this amount, 216 billion UAH is allocated for the procurement and production of weapons, military equipment, and drones.
