Military attaches from partner nations visited a training center of the Territorial Defense Forces of the Ukrainian Armed Forces where they observed training programs for UAV pilots, the use of ground robotic systems, and motorcycle operations.

According to Ukrinform, the Territorial Defense Forces reported this on Facebook.

“Commander of the Territorial Defense Forces of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, Major General Ihor Plakhuta, together with military attaches from partner countries representing the Kyiv Association of Military Attaches, visited the 150th Training Center of the Territorial Defense Forces. The guests familiarized themselves with the work of specialized schools, including UAV pilot training, the use of ground robotic systems, and the motorcycle training program. These are currently key components of personnel training amid high-intensity combat operations,” the statement reads.

Colonel Volodymyr Poltavets, commander of the 150th Training Center, said that military leadership wants machines, operated by skilled professionals, rather than people, to be placed in direct danger.

“This means fewer personnel losses, faster response times, greater task accuracy, and the ability to conduct high-risk operations without direct threats to soldiers’ lives,” Poltavets said.

He stressed that experience sharing, technical support, and unified standards make the Ukrainian Armed Forces more effective and resilient.
