Design, Build, and Innovate Next-Gen Drones for Ukraine’s Frontlines
Ukraine is pioneering drone warfare at scale. Volunteer engineers, tinkerers, and developers are building everything from FPV kamikaze drones to aerial surveillance tools that cost a fraction of traditional military equipment. Your skills could help design the next generation of tools that protect lives and disrupt the enemy.
✈️ Why Drone Design for Ukraine Matters
Ukraine has become the world leader in combat drone innovation, with:
- Over 500 drone production teams
- 200,000+ FPV drones delivered in 2024 alone
- Constant battlefield feedback driving agile improvements
- Integration of software, sensors, AI, and low‑cost production
Volunteer efforts are driving much of this momentum — assembling drones in garages, testing new designs, and open-sourcing improvements for the whole ecosystem.
💡 How You Can Contribute
You don’t need to be a drone expert — we welcome people with experience in:
- CAD design and mechanical prototyping
- Embedded systems, firmware, autopilot software
- Signal processing and video transmission
- Electronics assembly, soldering, and QA
- Flight testing and simulation
- Payload integration and release mechanisms
- Logistics planning and kitting drones for mass delivery
We’re also seeking testers, documenters, technical writers, and project managers.
🔭 Project Types

i believe that proximity sensor should be added to the drones. just to be able to crawl them into tight spaces without getting them stuck rendered useless. Just like parking sensors on cars.
please make sure that the email address is obfuscated at least. I don’t want orcs going after me. Slava Ukraina!
Being a calibration technician, i used regularly the spectrum analyzer for low pass highpass , bandpass , bandwidth calibration, freq tuning and harmonics suppression up to 18 Ghz range.
I want to manufacture a drone or aircraft mechanic in Ukraine.
I am aircraft Mechanic in Brazil.
bonjour,
je ne sais pas si je pourrais vous être utile, je suis un designer prêt a m’investir pleinement. Je peux également participer à des tâches de logistique ou tout autre tâche qui vous semble abordable.
Dans l’attente de votre réponse.
bonne journée
Hi. are we allowed to help Ukraine by printing the 3d printed drones?
please let me know.
I have lots of CAD/CAM experience and a degree in aerospace engineering. Please contact me soon.
