Military units have ordered 22,000 FPV drones, bombers, reconnaissance UAVs, and electronic warfare systems worth over UAH 1 billion through Brave1 Market using points awarded for destroying enemy targets. Under the updated Army of Drones Bonus programme, also known as e-points, equipment worth over UAH 266 million has already been delivered to the front, with an average delivery time of 10 days.
The new model of the Army of Drones Bonus programme began in August and is implemented through the integration of Brave1 Market, the DELTA system, and DOT-Chain Defence. Units can now use points earned for verified destruction or damage of enemy targets to purchase drones, electronic warfare systems, and other equipment from Ukrainian manufacturers on the marketplace.
How the programme works:
Military personnel receive points for destroying or damaging enemy targets and exchange them for drones and equipment needed for combat tasks via Brave1 Market, authorised through DELTA.
The procurement process is managed by the Defence Procurement Agency through the digital DOT-Chain Defence system, which facilitates contracts with manufacturers and coordinates direct delivery of drones and other equipment to units.
This enables manufacturers to supply drones and equipment directly to units. The average time from order to delivery is 10 days, with a record of 5 days.
This system allows highly effective combat units to quickly obtain additional drones and equipment alongside centralised supplies.
