Two operating systems with dozens of fighter drones have been delivered to the Kherson Defense Forces,

This was announced by the head of the Kherson Regional Defense Forces Oleksandr Prokudin.

The official's post says that the systems and drones were received, in particular, by the territorial defense brigade of the Marines and the National Guard of Ukraine.

It is noted that these systems are intended to deprive the enemy of the ability to conduct aerial reconnaissance.

The head of the UDA emphasized that in this way, the Kherson region is expanding the range of means aimed at countering enemy unmanned aerial vehicles.

He also added that the team of European Road Construction Company LLC provides systematic support to the region's defenders.

Earlier it was reported that the Ukrainian military serving in the Kherson sector received modern sighting systems. The high-tech artillery guidance systems were handed over to the soldiers of the 124th Marine Brigade of the Theater of Operations. These systems are capable of turning conventional weapons, including post-Soviet ones, into precision weapons. This will allow for much more efficient and effective fire. This assistance was provided by the team of the European Road Construction Company. The day before, a multi-purpose off-road vehicle was delivered to the Kherson region's defenders. The vehicle was handed over to the soldiers of one of the support units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The vehicle was purchased with the support of the NGO and the charity organization Important Actions.

Earlier it was reported that on September 17, drone detection equipment was delivered to combat units operating in the Kherson region. The 124th Marine Corps Territorial Defense Brigade received several such systems. Therefore, the JFO expects that they will increase the effectiveness of units countering enemy UAVs.
