A marketplace of the latest technologies for military personnel “Brave1 Market” has launched in Ukraine.
This was reported by the Minister of Digital Transformation Mykhailo Fedorov.
On the platform, the Defense Forces units will independently select the necessary equipment and purchase it with the funds of the military unit. “Brave1 Market” will operate as an online store — like “Amazon” or “Rozetka”, but instead of ordinary goods, it will sell innovations, says the head of the Ministry of Digital Affairs.
He added that the marketplace already features over 1 000 items, including:
- drones;
- ground work;
- electronic warfare and reconnaissance equipment;
- components;
- artificial intelligence-based tools;
- software;
- ammunition.
“Now the military themselves are looking for manufacturers and developments on the Internet, through acquaintances and other units, so access to information is limited... [Now] defenders will be able to choose the right technology in a few clicks, compare the characteristics of different means, contact the manufacturer and conclude a direct deal,” said Mykhailo Fedorov.
For security reasons, defense personnel will log in to the marketplace through "Diia". Particularly sensitive data is contained in a closed catalogue, access to which is available only to verified servicemen through the Delta system, the minister noted.
