The funds were collected within the framework of the "Legion Boom" initiative. The Defense Department of Lithuania has already held negotiations with the manufacturer, the Polish company WB Group
In addition to 37 drones, 10 of which the company will make for free, Lithuania will buy two sets with all the necessary accessories.
Warmate combat drones are easily transportable, they weigh about 5.7 kg and can fly up to 30 km at a speed of 150 km/h. They can be prepared for tasks in less than 5 minutes. At the same time, drones can carry explosives, destroy tanks or even command posts.
It is worth noting that funds for "Legion Boom" were collected by Lithuanian public activist and journalist Andryus Tapinas. Within the framework of the initiative, it was possible to collect about 2 million euros. The remaining funds will be used to purchase UJ-23 Topaz Ukrainian kamikaze drones manufactured by UkrJet.
