Renault to Establish Drone Production Facility in Ukraine Amid Russian Offensive
French automaker Renault confirms plans to manufacture drones for Ukrainian and French military amid renewed hostilities in the region.
French automotive manufacturer Renault has announced plans to establish a production facility for drones in Ukraine.
This development is intended to supply the Ukrainian armed forces as well as the French military.
The announcement comes as the Russian military has initiated a significant offensive in the Dnipropetrovsk region of eastern Ukraine, marking a notable escalation in the conflict.
The Ukrainian defense strategy anticipates the deployment of over 4.5 million drones by 2025, projecting that these unmanned aerial vehicles will be responsible for approximately 70% of enemy equipment destruction.
The establishment of Renault's drone production in Ukraine represents a strategic bolstering of the country's military capabilities at a time of intensified conflict.
