7 March 2024 16:01
In February 2024, the OKKO petrol station chain and the “Back Alive” Foundation announced another joint initiative – OKO ZAKO 3 – to purchase 10 Pulstron combat systems for units of airborne assault troops, the company said in a release, Komersant ukrainskyi 
.
As of 4 March, the initiators, together with the network’s clients, had accumulated the first 50 million hryvnias for the purchase of the first Pulstron. There are nine more to come. The Pulstrones will be transferred to the companies of unmanned aerial systems (RUBAK) operating within the DSV. These military formations are able to carry out a full cycle of combat operations :
- detecting the enemy,
- tracking enemy logistics,
- escort,
- destruction,
- repelling assaults,
- counter-battery warfare,
- destruction of fortifications,
- demining and much more.
RUBACs partially take over the function of artillery, and under favourable conditions can significantly change the interior of the theatre of operations.
We would like to remind you that the OKKO network transfers 1 hryvnia from each sold litre of Pulls fuel for the purchase of complexes for reconnaissance and destruction – Pulstrones. In addition, the initiative can also be supported by donating to the special account of the “Back Alive” Foundation.
