Ukrainian Startup Aims to Sell Drones to US Military Amid Regulatory Hurdles
Skyfall, a Ukrainian drone maker, is showcasing its products at the Dubai Airshow in hopes of selling them to the US military. The company’s products, including the Vampire and Shrike drones, are designed for real-time feedback environments and have been successful in Ukraine. Skyfall is in contact with Western defense companies to be ready for partnerships once government-to-government agreements are reached. The US military’s goal of buying one million drones over the next two-to-three years may create a significant opportunity for Skyfall, but regulatory hurdles, including export controls, may slow the company’s progress.
