"The moment you have a presence in any field is the moment you have the ability to expand it at any time to meet the needs of your own state," Fedorenko said.

He said that Ukraine retaining the ability to modernize and manufacture is a very significant achievement that will be appreciated over time.

Fedorenko noted that Ukrainian weapons allow them to influence the occupiers regardless of approvals from Western countries.

"We will influence the enemy in such a way that the enemy cannot terrorize and kill Ukrainians. It is our choice where we will direct our missiles," emphasized the commander of the 429th Separate Unmanned Systems Regiment "ACHILLES."

He added that although the missile is being produced in small batches, it is already a breakthrough.
