    will create a joint venture for the development and production of UAVs,

    The past decades have been developing, today it is time to produce in large batches. When the word "development" is heard in the Russian Federation, the concept of "cutting" very often becomes synonymous, because we have a number of new UAVs (Hunter, Pacer, etc.), whose "development" lasts for a decade and devours huge funds, probably for this they were "stretched out over a decade development".

    The whole essence and information of the article is in its title, but I wrote it, I wrote it, I poured water into 3 buckets!
    And unmanned vehicles were needed yesterday, at least 10 years ago, and they are only going to develop them. Why, they are still only agreeing on a joint venture, but whether there will be development, and even more so production, is still unknown!
