Pegasus Arms halts production after Kyiv workshop strike

Bottom line

Pegasus Arms has stopped production of its heavy quadcopter drones following a Russian strike on its Kyiv workshop, which the Russian MoD claims destroyed a heavy/mid-range drone facility.

Why it matters

The disruption of Pegasus Arms production highlights the vulnerability of Ukrainian drone manufacturing to Russian strikes, potentially impacting the supply of heavy, EW-resistant drones to the front lines.

Ukrainian sources report that Pegasus Arms, a manufacturer of the Pegasus Arms 25 heavy quadcopter (14kg payload, 20km range, EW-resistant), has halted production after a Russian strike on its Kyiv workshop on September 23-24. The Russian MoD claims the strike hit a heavy and mid-range drone facility. Over 1,500 units of the Pegasus 25 are reported to be in combat.
