Ukrainian technologies are not just for show. Some of them are already used by Ukrainian Army to counter Russian forces in temporarily occupied Donbas (Eastern Ukraine), while others prove their effectiveness abroad. Defense Express covered the combat capabilities of "SOKIL-300" earlier, so we don't provide an overview on it here. Also, here is the analysis of another UMEX-2018 participant, which was not enlisted this time. And if you are interested in a deeper view of the Ukraine-Turkiye co-operation in the UAV field, here is the interview with Haluk Bayraktar, CEO of the Turkish "Baykar Defense" company.
