Poroshenko hands over 6 upgraded Aypetri EW systems to military
People's Deputy and European Solidarity party leader Petro Poroshenko has handed over six modernized Aypetri counter-technical intelligence (EW/CTI) complexes to military units, which are set to take up positions on Monday, November 2, the political party's website reported on Sunday.
Poroshenko has handed over six upgraded Aypetri EW systems to Ukraine's military, which are set to be deployed on November 2. These systems are designed to counteract Russian attacks using jet-powered Shaheds, a threat that has intensified since August. The modernized Aypetri EW complexes operate on higher frequencies, providing an effective countermeasure against the Russian threats.
The defense ministry of a friendly NATO member country has financed the entire batch, for which Poroshenko expressed gratitude. The production of these systems is ongoing, and Poroshenko praised the efforts of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the manufacturing plant, and the team behind their development. Since autumn 2023, Poroshenko has invested over UAH 200 million in the production of Aypetri SV systems, with successful trials and deployment in the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
