Ministry of Defense additionally allocated 2.1 billion UAH for drones for brigades: how the marketplace works

The Ministry of Defense of Ukraine has decided to invest an additional 2.1 billion hryvnias in the procurement of drones and other equipment for the Armed Forces brigades through the DOT-Chain Defence marketplace. In total, since the launch of the platform, the Ministry of Defense has spent over 6.3 billion hryvnias for these purposes.

The marketplace system allows brigades to choose the equipment they need within the allocated funds. The entire process - from contract signing to payment - is controlled by the Defense Procurement Agency of the Ministry of Defense. This allows the military to receive resources quickly, transparently, and without excessive bureaucracy. For example, the average delivery time for FPV drones through DOT-Chain Defence is 10 days from the moment of order to receipt by the brigade.

'This project allows us to quickly replenish our arsenal and provide our military with modern technical means,' emphasized a representative of the Ministry of Defense.
