Pentagon invites 2 Ukrainian drone makers to 'The Gauntlet' — $1.1 billion in contracts at stake

The U.S. Pentagon is trialing attack drones for new contracts that should total $1.1 billion, inviting two Ukrainian drone makers to take part. A Feb. 3 notice listed 25 companies invited to take part in a competition as the intro to the "Drone Dominance Program." One of the firms invited is General Cherry, in Ukrainian known as Heneral Chereshnya, one of the largest producers of first-person view (FPV) drones in the country, though its sudden rise over 2025 attracted extensive scrutiny.
