Statement from Helsing

It is factually incorrect that Ukraine is holding off on new Helsing drone orders from Helsing. On the contrary, there are concrete requests from more than six units within the Ukrainian army to order the HX-2. After the recent frontline testing, the unit that tested the system requested more than 1,000 drones for combat missions.

The HX-2 has been successfully tested in frontline operations in Ukraine and the performance of the system has been documented. Following these tests, HX-2 was approved for frontline use. It is also now listed in an official central ordering system of the Ukrainian army.

HX-2 has consistently scored hit rates very close to or of 100% during military tests in Germany, the UK, and Kenya. As Carsten Breuer, Inspector General of the German Armed Forces, put it publicly after controlling two HX-2s himself: “Excellent cooperation between industry and soldiers – What was demonstrated today was characterised by precision, great accuracy, and effective teamwork... In my opinion, it couldn't have gone better.”
