UKRSPECSYSTEMS PD-2 UKRSPECSYSTEMS. Ukrainian IT Community has collected $1,000,000 in one day
Ukrainians are incredible. May 6 at 9:04 pm Dou.ua announced the initiative “IT community, let’s buy a “plane” for the army” and on the 7th of May at 9 am the whip-round was finished. 30 million hryvnias in 24 hours!
It took 16 501 transactions, but because some were paying several times, a little less people. The largest donation is 150 000 UAH, the lowest – 1 UAH, and the average – 2 000 UAH. All payments went immediately to the expense of the Come Back Alive Foundation.
The community raised money for a modern complex UKRSPECSYSTEMS PD-2 which includes two UAVs and a control vehicle. PD-2 is a complex of Ukrainian production with a new gyrostabilized platform-suspension USG-400 or mini-AWACS Gekata . PD-2 is first and foremost recconnaissance UAVs, but combat use is possible as a carrier of bomb-load with a weight of the combat part up to 3 kg. PD-2 UAVs can be equipped with a vertical take-off system as well as a shipping module.
PD-2 was tested at the end of 2021, but in 2022 UKRSPECSYSTEMS has started full-scale production of UAVs for the front.
