The State Border Guard Service of Ukraine has formed the first Unmanned Strike Aviation Systems Company, known as the Pomsta Brigade. The Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine stated that the Pomsta Brigade is one of the most effective units of the State Border Guard Service. Lieutenant Colonel Dmytro Oleksiuk, a Hero of Ukraine, has been entrusted with the formation of the company. The Unmanned Strike Aviation Systems Company will utilize a variety of aircraft and drones, including FPV, night bombers, and lightweight reconnaissance UAVs. The selection process for specialists for this unit has already begun.

The Pomsta Brigade has been actively involved in fighting since 2014 and played a crucial role in protecting the state border and combating Russian terrorists. In January 2024, the 3rd Border Detachment was renamed the Pomsta Brigade. The brigade has been involved in the defense of the Ukrainian town of Chasiv Yar in recent months. The formation of the Unmanned Strike Aviation Systems Company is a strategic move to enhance Ukraine’s capabilities in identifying and destroying military targets, contributing to the country’s victory against the enemy.
