A Platform for Security Solutions
In Ukraine, the specialized forum “Protection of Infrastructure and Industrial Facilities” was held, dedicated to current security challenges facing critical infrastructure in wartime conditions.
The event brought together representatives of government agencies, the security and defense sector, industrial enterprises, energy companies, and developers of technological solutions. Participants included companies working in the field of engineering protection (barrier structures and shelters), developers of electronic warfare (EW) systems, manufacturers of anti-drone netting, unmanned systems, as well as other solutions aimed at increasing the resilience of facilities against modern threats.
Particular focus was placed on the protection of infrastructure from strike UAVs and combined attacks, which are currently among the primary means of targeting critical assets.
Practical Training as a Key Element
Modern warfare has shown that even the most effective technical solutions are insufficient without properly trained personnel. That is why the forum placed significant emphasis on practical training, the ability to respond quickly, operate as a team, and make decisions under stress.
The participation of U-FORCE LLC was focused specifically on training as a component of the overall protection system. At our exhibition area, we demonstrated the VR counter-drone training simulator, as well as a training system for Mobile Air Defense Fire Teams (MADFTs) based on the Browning M2 machine gun. Visitors had the opportunity to personally test our solutions: run training scenarios, practice target detection and engagement, and assess how closely the training reflects real operational conditions.
In addition to simulators, we also presented our approach to countering unmanned aerial threats and protecting infrastructure as an integrated system. This involves combining engineering solutions, technology, and personnel training. Such an approach not only enables response to attacks but also systematically reduces the vulnerability of critical assets.
The forum “Protection of Infrastructure and Industrial Facilities” confirmed that Ukraine is developing a holistic security ecosystem that integrates multiple domains—from physical protection and engineering solutions to advanced technologies and human training.
For U-FORCE LLC, participation in such events is an opportunity to integrate its solutions into this system and to further develop training as one of the key elements of defense capability.
Effective protection today is not a set of isolated solutions, but the correct combination of them. Ultimately, it is trained people who make this system work.
