Kosovo buys "AeroVironment RQ-20 Puma" unmanned aircraft in the US, Kurti: More eyes in the sky, for more security on the ground
Kosovo's acting Minister of Defense, Ejup Maqedonci, announced that last week, Kosovo received the AeroVironment RQ-20 Puma unmanned aerial vehicles procured from the United States. In a post on the social network Facebook, Maqedonci wrote that the Ministry of Defense procured the Puma unmanned aerial vehicles from the United States through the state-to-state program known as Foreign Military Sale (FMS). Payment for this system was made in 2021.
"Puma aircraft, along with other aircraft, are another necessary capacity to increase the capabilities of the KSF in the field of unmanned aerial systems. Cooperation with the US in the field of defense is constantly deepening and expanding, contributing to the development of our army as well as to the achievement of the common interests of our two countries," Maqendonci wrote.
Meanwhile, immediately after posting this news on social media, Kosovo Prime Minister Albin Kurti also reacted, thanking his subordinates and writing, "More eyes in the sky, for more security on earth."
