The Ministry of Defense of Ukraine reports that Russia plans to produce more than 7 million FPV drones this year. This figure represents an increase of 3 million drones compared to Russia's production last year. The Ukrainian ministry notes that this planned quantity coincides with Ukraine's own previously announced drone production targets. While quantity is a concern, Ukrainian officials also emphasize that improvements in drone quality are a significant factor.
