Poroshenko hands over 10 Ai-Petri systems to military
Petro Poroshenko, a Ukrainian MP and leader of the European Solidarity party, announced the handover of another 10 Ai-Petri technical reconnaissance countermeasure systems to Ukraine's Defense Forces.
Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko announced the transfer of ten Ai-Petri technical reconnaissance countermeasure systems to the country's defense forces. Poroshenko emphasized the changing nature of warfare in a recent Facebook post, stating that the conflict now involves technology. He highlighted the Ai-Petri system as a successful private investment in Ukrainian defense, claiming it helps save soldiers' lives.
The system, showcased at the MSPO 2026 exhibition in Poland, detects and disables enemy drones, effectively altering the battlefield dynamics in Ukraine's favor. Over 300 Ai-Petri systems are currently operational on the front lines. The technology uses artificial intelligence to adapt to evolving battlefield conditions, tracking and disrupting targets within a 20-30 km range.
The system comes in stationary and mobile versions, the latter requiring less than ten minutes to deploy by two personnel. Poroshenko's private investment of over UAH 200 million has funded the development and production of the Ai-Petri system, which is also being used to safeguard critical infrastructure.
