On February 27, TAF Industries participated and became partners of the “Ukrainska Pravda” event “War’26: People vs. Machines”.
The founder of TAF Industries, Oleksandr Yakovenko, took part in a panel discussion on the key challenges of the war of the future and the role of Ukrainian defense technologies tested by the frontline.
“I will say frankly: I have never believed in the possibility of classic export – when we simply produce drones here and sell them abroad. What we in Ukraine are used to calling corruption, in the West has an official name – lobbying. Western countries very rigidly protect the interests of their own companies and beneficiaries. They want the main defense orders to be received by enterprises owned by their citizens,” Oleksandr Yakovenko.
The combat experience of Ukrainian developments is a great advantage, but the real scale will come only through strategic partnerships and integration into international ecosystems.
Also at the Ukrainska Pravda conference “War’26: People vs. Machines” at the stand, we presented a new development — a 17-inch drone-repeater. CMO TAF Industries Maksym Kolesnikov told more about it in a comment to “Oborontsi”:
“The more processes are automated, the more attention can be paid to the performance of combat missions.”
