Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić announced plans to establish a drone manufacturing facility in collaboration with Israel’s Elbit Systems. The factory opening is scheduled to occur between September 15th and 20th. This venture signifies a strengthening of defense ties between Serbia and Israel. The partnership will involve the co-production of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), commonly known as drones. Details regarding the specific types of drones to be produced and the financial investment involved remain limited. This development positions Serbia to enhance its military capabilities and potentially become a regional player in drone technology. The move is consistent with Serbia’s efforts to modernize its armed forces.
