The UK has delivered thousands of uncrewed aerial systems to Ukraine, including logistics, loitering munitions, long-range attack and reconnaissance types. Uncrewed aerial systems have been supplied regularly since April 2022, with more planned over the coming months. For security reasons, we will not confirm the types, exact number or delivery schedules of uncrewed aerial systems supplied.

In addition to our national efforts, the UK-administered International Fund for Ukraine has delivered over 100 uncrewed aerial systems between June and November 2023.
