Ukrainian drone maker in WashPost: West must diversify beyond a single Patriot supplier

Denys Shtilerman, founder of Ukrainian drone and missile manufacturer FirePoint, writes in The Washington Post that Ukraine uses more Patriot interceptors each month than the entire world can produce in two months. He calls on the West to learn from this and stop relying on a single manufacturer and a single country for critical air-defence munitions. FirePoint supplies drones and missiles to the Ukrainian military.
