The process is meant to eliminate paper reports, facilitating an immediate analysis of battlefield conditions and strike effectiveness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mission Control represents Kyiv\u2019s latest push to turn improvised war-fighting into a standardized, data-driven operation, echoing the sensor-to-shooter integration Western militaries have sought for decades.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The rollout comes as Ukraine positions its wartime data trove as leverage in peace negotiations \u2014 and as a touchpoint for deeper integration with allies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe will create a system that allows them to develop their software solutions utilizing our data,\u201d Defense Minister Mykhailo Fedorov told reporters days before launching Mission Control, per <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/business\/aerospace-defense\/ukraine-share-wartime-combat-data-with-allies-help-train-ai-2026-01-20\/\" rel=\"\">Reuters<\/a>. \u201cCurrently, data from the front lines holds immense value.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although Fedorov announced the system\u2019s kickoff just last month, officials have been working on the concept for years as a means to level the playing field against Russia\u2019s military numerical overmatch, Ukraine, Deputy Defense Minister Lt. Col. Yuriy Myronenko told Military Times last week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe are a very different country from our enemy,\u201d Myronenko said. \u201cThey have a lot of resources, people, money, and a lot of Soviet units, storage, ammunition, and a lot of things.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Myronenko served as a combat commander fighting with drones in Ukraine\u2019s southern front in 2023, then led the DELTA development group, then oversaw national cyber defense and drone procurement before moving to his current post.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<aside class=\"smg-interstitial-link wp-block-smg-interstitial-link\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/militarytimes\/commentary\/2025\/12\/11\/a-drone-war-is-more-silent-and-more-deadly-and-america-is-behind\/\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__media\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" src=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Khartia_drones_night-_vampire_by_Nikoletta_Stoyanova-12.jpg.jpg?w=300\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__image wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__content\">\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"smg-interstitial-link__kicker\">Related<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"smg-interstitial-link__title\">A drone \u2018war is more silent and more deadly\u2019 \u2014 and America is behind<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"smg-interstitial-link__excerpt\">If the U.S. is ever dragged into a large-scale war against an adversary like China or Iran, it will be ill-equipped for a drone-heavy background.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t<\/aside>\n\t\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">His view, and his recent appointment as deputy minister after serving previously in the Ministry of Digital Transformation alongside Federov, reflects the ministry\u2019s broader bet that technology and speed are the country\u2019s top assets for offsetting Russia\u2019s advantages in manpower and materiel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe have good software, and we like technology, we like markets,\u201d he said. \u201cThis is the only chance to win for us. There is no other chance.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ukraine now produces or procures more than 5 million drones annually, Myronenko confirmed to Military Times, including both \u201ckamikaze, one-time-use drones\u201d and fixed-wing drones reaching beyond 1,000 kilometers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/digitalstate.gov.ua\/news\/tech\/v-ukrayini-zapuskaiut-mission-control-yedynu-tsyfrovu-systemu-upravlinnia-dronamy\" rel=\"\">Mission Control<\/a> is designed to manage this arsenal across a front line stretching hundreds of kilometers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The advantage, Myronenko said, is not the technology itself \u2014 it\u2019s how fast Ukraine can identify what works and scale it before the enemy adapts. \u201cIf we receive technology, the enemy will receive it as well,\u201d he said. \u201cSpeed is key.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mission Control feeds directly into Ukraine\u2019s performance-based \u201cgamification\u201d model, where drone units earn points for verified kills and top performers get priority access to new equipment. The connection is automatic: data entered into Mission Control flows into the ePoints ranking system without requiring separate reporting, Myronenko said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt is important for us to have a complete picture \u2014 with results and accumulated experience.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mission Control is designed to give commanders real-time visibility into what\u2019s working and what\u2019s not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cSome units use drones very efficiently, some of them don\u2019t, some of them have good management, some of them don\u2019t,\u201d Myronenko said. \u201cWe need to understand what is happening on the battlefield.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The centralized system resolves that problem: \u201cCommanders can see the whole picture. They can see what is working. They can see what is not working. They can see which crews are effective. They can see which drones are effective. They can see which tactics are effective,\u201d he said. \u201cAnd after that, they can scale it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The initiative also captures failure data for the first time. Before Mission Control, Ukraine could track confirmed kills, but not misses. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe received all kinds of information about successful killing, but we didn\u2019t have information about failures,\u201d Myronenko said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That means commanders can now calculate actual effectiveness rates, cost-per-kill, and identify underperforming systems \u2014 not just count hits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe are moving from chaos and fragmented data to managed, technological warfare, where decisions are made based on precise figures, not assumptions,\u201d Fedorov said at the system\u2019s launch. \u201cThis is the new logic of war.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Myronenko \u2014 who previously led Ukraine\u2019s State Service of Special Communication, the agency responsible for national cyber defense \u2014 said officials are creating the system with the highest levels of cybersecurity protection available, including those upheld by NATO partners. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe security system itself is checked constantly,\u201d Myronenko told Military Times, noting that Mission Control had already passed key cybersecurity standards put forth by the US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt is so complex that it is checked by the Big Four every year,\u201d he added, referring to the four largest cybersecurity consulting firms globally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAnd the security systems are completely located in the national protected network,\u201d he said. \u201cNo one except the Ministry of Defense has access to it,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Access is distributed on a least-privilege basis. Brigade commanders see brigade-level data. Corps commanders see corps-level data. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If a device is lost or captured \u2014 \u201cand this happens quite often in the war\u201d \u2014 the system limits exposure. \u201cThere is no access to the system itself. Only to the data that the pilot had,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Asked whether centralizing all operational drone data in one system creates a risk that outweighs the benefit, Myronenko pushed back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe biggest risk is that when almost a million people are fighting, and we don\u2019t understand how they fight \u2013 which ways work, which don\u2019t work, which are effective, which are ineffective,\u201d he said. \u201cThis is the biggest risk when you don\u2019t control the situation.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cEven if we imagine that the enemy will see which drones we kill, which of them are effective \u2014 well, it\u2019s probably very bad,\u201d he acknowledged. \u201cBut without data, we will not be able to do anything.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Myronenko drew a clear line on what gets shared with international partners, too. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Raw operational data from Mission Control \u2014 the real-time feed of who\u2019s flying what, where, and with what results \u2014 \u201cit\u2019s operative information, and we never share it with anyone,\u201d he told Military Times. But analytics \u2014 trend data, effectiveness patterns, month-over-month changes \u2014 \u201cof course, can be shared with our close partners.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He declined to name specific countries currently involved in the system\u2019s development, but said that allies had already been part of the system\u2019s development process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The next target for centralization under Ukraine\u2019s MoD: artillery data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cBecause it\u2019s the same logic,\u201d Myronenko said. \u201cWe need to have the data. We need to have the complete picture. We need to speed up decision-making.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These developments are key to strengthening the defensive capabilities of Ukraine and its allies, according to the deputy minister.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe need to innovate faster than our enemy,\u201d Myronenko said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mission
