The focus is on scaling technologies that have already proven their effectiveness on the battlefield, in particular interceptor drones.

This is a task set by the President
According to him, they also talked about "weapon production and the launch of new solutions capable of changing the situation at the front." "We are working on deregulation in the field of drone transfer and write-off so that the military receives what they need without unnecessary bureaucracy," Shmyhal added.
