Troops have ordered over 590,000 UAVs through Brave1 Market since the start of the year
In the first nine months of 2026, Ukrainian troops ordered more than 590,000 unmanned aerial vehicles on the government-run Brave1 Market marketplace.
Demand keeps growing: the average monthly value of orders has more than doubled since the start of the year.
Which drones troops order most on Brave1 Market
Interceptor drones are the most ordered, both those that hunt reconnaissance drones and dedicated anti-Shahed interceptors. Copter-type FPV kamikaze drones come second.
Fixed-wing kamikaze UAVs showed the fastest growth. At peak activity, troops were ordering six times as many of these drones as at the start of the year.
Mothership drones are among the most expensive technology segments, while bomber drones account for the largest share of spending.
What troops can buy with ePoints on Brave1 Market
Troops can use ePoints to buy drones, unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) and electronic warfare (EW) systems.
Units earn points for completed combat missions, such as confirmed target hits, reconnaissance, and robotic logistics and evacuation missions.
This system lets high-performing units get more of the equipment they need, exactly what is required here and now. Manufacturers, in turn, see real-time statistics on their products: where their drone or UGV ranks, how many missions it has completed, which units use it most, and more.
Brave1 Market previously launched custom drone orders tailored to the needs of the military. For now, this feature is available only for purchases made with units’ own funds.
