The Japanese company Terra Drone Corporation, through its subsidiary Terra Inspectioneering, has made a strategic investment in the Ukrainian defense company WinnyLab LLC, which develops and manufactures drone interceptors.
According to a press release by Terra Drone on Tuesday, this investment follows earlier investments in Ukrainian interceptor drone developer Amazing Drones.
