The joint venture will focus on developing advanced technological solutions and providing support in key defence areas. These include air defence, radar systems, electronic warfare, tactical communications, and electro-optical systems.
Oleh Huliak, CEO of Ukroboronprom, stated that the partnership would help strengthen Ukraine’s defence capabilities against Russian threats. He also highlighted the benefits for Ukraine’s defence industry, particularly in gaining experience with advanced technologies.
Thales, a company specialising in information systems for the aerospace and defence sectors, has been expanding its cooperation with Ukraine. In June 2024, it signed three agreements with Ukrainian defence companies to collaborate on electronic warfare, air defence, radar technology, and drones.
