Equip the Interceptor
Fundraising to purchase 50 “Mantis” interceptor drone systems for a unit of the 35th Separate Marine Brigade, which is defending Ukraine on an extremely challenging section of the front line
How can I helpTogether, we successfully closed the "Double Shield" fundraiser and raised the funds for 50 "Mantis" interceptor drones. To let these drones work at full effectiveness, the crews need specialized equipment for control, power, maintenance, and getting drones back into service quickly after combat missions. That's why the military unit came to our foundation with an official request to complete the equipment for the interceptors we've already delivered.
We've already delivered 50 interceptor drones together. Now it's time to fully equip each one, giving it everything it needs to become a complete operational system.
Why this matters
Every interceptor drone works as part of a larger system.
Enemy drones conduct reconnaissance, direct artillery fire, and target Ukrainian positions every day. Mantis interceptor drones, unmanned aerial platforms adapted to intercept enemy UAVs, exist to counter exactly this threat and protect the people and territory behind our lines.
But a drone's effectiveness doesn't come from the platform alone. Full operational capability requires a complete set of ground equipment, control systems, power supplies, maintenance tools, and spare parts.
This equipment is what lets a crew prepare drones for missions quickly, keep them in working order, and get the most out of their defensive capabilities.
What we're purchasing
Through this campaign, we will equip 50 interceptor drones with the complete sets of gear crews need to operate them fully under combat conditions.
This includes:
- ground control stations;
- FPV goggles;
- remote controls;
- power systems and charging equipment;
- additional modules;
- cables;
- maintenance tools;
- spare parts and consumables;
These are the elements that keep the drones fully operational, properly maintained, and quickly returned to defensive duty.
This fundraiser was launched by the "BIT MEDIA UNION UKRAINE" Charitable Foundation, based on an official request from a military unit defending the Pokrovsk direction.
Goal: 750,000 UAH
Every contribution helps fully equip 50 Mantis interceptor drones, so they can carry out their defensive mission and strengthen protection for Ukrainian servicemembers.
