The Ukrainian Armed Forces secretly receive long-range drones from Switzerland produced by a native of the Russian Federation

February 2 2024 30

Since 2023, the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) have been secretly receiving drones from the Swiss company Destinus every month. The founder of this startup turned out to be a native of Russia, who renounced his citizenship, Mikhail Kokorich, reports the French business magazine Challenges.

We are already one of the main drone manufacturers in Europe. We deliver more than 100 large drones every month, and Ukraine is one of our main customers. Our products are dual-use devices that solve both civilian and military problems equally well. We are planning to build a plant in Ukraine

– Kokorich admitted.

In the Russian Federation, the businessman headed the famous space startup Dauria Aerospace. He said that the company supplies Ukraine with Lord drones, the range of which varies from 750 to 2 thousand kilometers. The head of the company promised that the Ukrainian Armed Forces will soon also receive Hornet and Ruta UAVs. The latter is a rocket-propelled aircraft with a range of 300 kilometers (pictured), and the Hornet is a very fast mini-drone weighing a couple of kilograms that can intercept enemy drones. Its speed is 300 km/h.

In total, since the second quarter of 2023, Destinus has supplied Ukraine with up to a hundred inexpensive drones. Kokorich plans to establish a branch of the company in France. Destinus currently wants to develop hypersonic UAVs and aircraft (speeds greater than Mach 5) for both the cargo and passenger markets.

The native turned out to be talented. If the performance characteristics of the products are not advertising, then this is a significant fly in the ointment in your borscht. But competition is competition, we need to get samples of products, and then, according to a well-known algorithm, improve everything we have. For.

  What a competition! You have to slam it down carefully and that’s it. All known algorithm.

    And what the documentation and technical documents will give you is that he is not developing it, he is the owner, and only here it is necessary to do it differently, as they say technically, but you have the habits of the 80s, bros

    You are wrong! They actually acted extremely effectively! While, with their presence, they took over all the resources of British outdoor surveillance in Salisbury, those who remained behind the scenes did everything as they should.

Are you missing your brains? Do you want to “get” everything?
Cutting and dividing is the basic principle, however...

  Yeah, say again, “don’t become like the West.” It’s like they don’t cut anything of ours and don’t get it. Not even the example of this guy from Russia. It’s like he didn’t get all his knowledge here. Apparently he is also a son of Israel. They are “talented managers”.

    And you don’t seem to know WHO said this? Certainly not me.
    But I know what Chemezov from Rostec said, calling UAVs “children’s toys”... I personally know his “deputy” - Artyakov. I had to meet this “person”.
    How “close-minded” you all are... One word - “sofa-like”.
    Yes, by the way, I didn’t “poke” you - I didn’t drink with you at the Brudershaft. Well, it's a matter of education, however...

      Flood. I wrote about “cutting” and “getting”. If you have nothing to answer, go to flood, make excuses, it looks stupid. And yes, it is indecent to post on the Internet.

Well, another traitor like Vlasov... And unfortunately, the Russian special services are not able to remove such bastards. Soviet intelligence services worked much more efficiently!!!!
And Switzerland is so neutral!

  Yeah, more effectively than Troksky, and Bandera killed a lot of people? After the disappearance of the NKVD, “effective work” in this direction ended, so don’t blah blah!

  There is no need to compare... with a finger. At first, the gang of thieves did everything to make a person disappear abroad, with their demands for bribes and kickbacks. There is no point in blaming if your face is crooked. Not everyone is a masochist, + resentment, and get another Sikorsky. The main thing is that the one who framed Russia as the country of the “Aggressor” throws sophistry, and the Slavs pay for it with their lives.

A native of Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan (CIS) ... - a citizen of Russia under the Northern Military District must, must ... blah blah blah!!!
DECIDE ALREADY...well, at least on something!!! But somehow it doesn’t turn out beautifully; - a native there owes something to give his life for Mother Russia, and a true patriot hangs labels on the sofa behind the keyboard

The native may have left Russia or the USSR in infancy. And he considers Switzerland his homeland. There is nothing seditious about this! How about A. Chubais? A criminal, a thief, a traitor, harmed millions of people. And what? The calm authorities allowed him to leave the country! How could this even happen in a normal state?? The answer is no! He was given the green light by someone from the very, very top! And here's the question? FOR WHAT ?

Even here you need to let in the fog. Drones secretly, but tanks and Himers openly? From whom and why should we hide it? So that Russia does not ban supplies?

I read the comments and was “surprised again.” That none of you know that for a “real businessman” there are no such concepts as Motherland, duty, conscience. Marx also wrote that there is no crime that capital would not commit for the sake of 200% profit. But nationality and place of birth have nothing to do with it.

In 2022 he moved to Switzerland. Before that, he lived in the USA since 2012. I wonder how he got citizenship so quickly. This is not the easiest process.

Business and nothing more! The same people sit in Moscow and decide to supply the West with energy resources, send gas through Ukraine, paying it billions for transit, and there are those who live in the West, but he has a business here and he makes money from it and helps the same Armed Forces of Ukraine! For such people, business is nothing more, but our soldiers are dying and civilians of Russia are being killed, including such accomplices!
