United Kingdom to mass-produce Ukrainian-designed interceptor drones

(Patria) - The United Kingdom announced on Wednesday that it will mass-produce Ukrainian-designed interceptor drones to help Ukraine counter Russian missiles and one-way attack drones, Reuters reported.

The joint project aimed to produce thousands of drones per month, each costing less than ten percent of the value of the targets they are designed to intercept, the government said.

In June, Prime Minister Keir Starmer and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced a defense co-production initiative.

Earlier on Wednesday, Poland shot down Russian drones that entered its airspace during a night-time attack on Ukraine. Moscow denied responsibility, and a senior diplomat in Poland said the drones came from the direction of Ukraine.

The British government, which previously pledged to increase drone deliveries to Ukraine tenfold by April 2026, has pledged £4.5 billion ($6.10 billion) in military support to Ukraine this year, its largest commitment to date.
