The swallow, created by a neural network, has become the symbol of the new kind of troops. As conceived by the command, the swallow is one of the most revered symbols in Ukrainian culture, signifying the news of victory.
First Deputy Defense Minister Ivan Havryliuk noted that unmanned systems will help protect the lives of the military and defeat the enemy to the fullest extent from combat formations to the Urals.
We have a good prospect of winning the war against Russia. We can achieve this victory thanks to your intelligence, your perseverance, and what you are doing to protect the lives and health of our servicemen and women by increasingly using robots and unmanned systems to perform combat missions in the air, on the ground, and at sea
At the same time, the commander of the Unmanned Systems Forces, Vadym Sukharevskyi, noted that Ukraine is studying the experience of modern warfare and immediately implementing changes.
Today we have shown the whole world that Ukraine has moved away from the conservative approach. Today we have set a precedent. Thus, we are ready to dictate the rules of this war for further success
