The Ukrainian Armed Forces have received their first FC.K tactical electronic warfare systems, jointly developed by Ukraine's First Contact and Germany's GSMK, with support from the German government. These systems, designed to suppress russian drones, are fully NATO-certified and integrated into frontline units.
As part of the first delivery phase, First Contact transferred 30 FC.K complexes to the Armed Forces. Already cleared for combat use, the systems have demonstrated high effectiveness against enemy UAVs in operational testing.

The FC.K is a mobile EW platform designed to detect and jam remote-control links and video or telemetry channels between drones and their operators. Mounted on a Kozak armored vehicle by Praktyka, the system can operate in high-risk areas while shielding crews from FPV drones and other threats. Remote operation capability also allows safe deployment without exposing personnel.
Equipped with multiple jamming modes, advanced control systems, and encryption-protected software, the FC.K also features a GSMK-developed technology that identifies, analyzes, and geolocates mobile communication base stations.
"This project is the result of long-term engineering and international cooperation. We are grateful to our partners at GSMK and the German government for their support. FC.K is about protection, mobility, and technological superiority," said First Contact founder and combat veteran Valerii Borovyk.
The company added that production is being ramped up and integration expanded with both Ukrainian forces and international partners, marking another step toward a full national anti-drone defense ecosystem.
Ukrainian brigades have also recently started receiving another EW system, Veres-2, designed to counter russian drone-dropped munitions.
