Friends, Here is the report for our previous fundraiser. Publishing documents that contain my official personal details is a risky step, but if I hide everything, what guarantee would there be that the money wasn’t spent on cocaine and prostitutes instead of helping the soldiers? I value your trust, and transparency is the least I can offer in return. That is why I am willing to take this step and share the documentation openly. In the near future, I will also record and publish a video report. Thank you to everyone who supported us and continues to stand with Ukraine.

The enemy is actively conducting reconnaissance along the Line of Contact and far beyond it. I have to acknowledge the professionalism of the enemy’s fixed-wing reconnaissance UAV crews. During our last deployment, we lost three MAVKA remote antennas that provide the range and signal stability required for our operations. Due to terrain elevation changes and radio horizon limitations, we are forced to raise these antennas high above the ground using telescopic masts. Recently, the number of FPV strikes targeting our antenna systems has increased significantly. As the commander of a Vampire heavy bomber UAV crew, I am forced to turn to you for help. Could we raise funds to purchase three MAVKA remote antennas? Believe me, the losses we inflict on the occupiers every single day make this investment worthwhile. Thank you for your understanding and support. #Ukraine #SupportUkraine #NAFO #DronesForUkraine #Fundraiser 🅿️ay🅿️al: DmitryShchipkov@gmail.com 🔥GOAL: 💲 2 029 USD (90 000 UAH)

Friends, I’m happy to share some great news with you! We’ve managed to raise $1,500 so far, which means only $529 remains to reach our goal. That’s an incredible result! This achievement is the direct result of your efforts, support, and generosity. If we keep up this pace, we may be able to reach our target in the very near future. I’d also like to remind everyone that a detailed report on the previous fundraiser will be published soon. I apologize for the delay, but please keep in mind the nature of my work and the circumstances under which I operate. My gratitude knows no bounds. Thank you for standing with us. #NAFO, you are simply the best!
