  1. >The Polish armed forces’ General Staff said on Tuesday that “talks are underway,” noting that the aging Soviet-era aircraft are nearing the end of their operational life and will not be modernized.

  2. Good, I am surprised there isn’t already a tech transfer from UA to Poland in spirit of cooperation. Not only as a reciprocation on UA side – but it is also in their interest if Poland develops drones that then UA can get from Poland. Self-feeding circle.

    It’s a win-win situation for everyone. Ukraine gets jets and Poland tech transfer from world’s most experienced country in terms of drone use. Missile tech will be useful as well judging how they keep hitting targets inside of russia.

  4. The Ukrainians lead the world in the use of drones in warfare. The most valuable commodity that they have is the real world, real battlefield data. AI training is vital for regular, non-military use and the data used for that training is out there, on the internet. Text, pictures, videos, sound recordings, whatever. Data used for development and training of AI-enabled military tech is a tightly held secret. Simulation and testing is a very expensive part of weapons systems development and the Ukrainian military have the data. When you see videos of those drones in action it means that there was another drone sent after the strike drone to record the strike. They don’t do it so they can post videos on the internet. And the videos is not the only thing they record. That data is worth a lot of money. And it can save a lot of time.
