# DoD Orders Ukrainian FPV Strike Drones

The U.S. Department of Defense ordered an additional 1,320 F10 FPV strike drones from Ukrainian manufacturer F-Drones under its $1 billion Drone Dominance Program. Reported October 7, 2026, the order is expected to be delivered by the end of November 2026, contingent on timely Ukrainian export authorization; its value was not disclosed. It contributes to DoD’s broader plan to procure more than 200,000 small strike drones by 2027, indicating sustained demand for this capability, though the specific order is already placed and no open solicitation is identified.

- The delivery target is **the end of November 2026**. The export-authorization dependency is a material schedule and supply-chain consideration for DoD and contractors supporting fulfillment.
- The program’s planned scale may inform industry planning for small-drone production and related supply-chain capacity. Companies should distinguish the broader procurement plan from this specific order, which has already been placed.
- UDD Tech Corp. is identified as F-Drones’ U.S. market representative; the signal does not specify its contractual role in the order.
