Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said Tuesday that the country will be producing corvettes, motors, drones and air defense systems with Turkey.

Speaking at Ukrainian Parliament following his visit to Ankara, Zelenskiy said that bilateral relations between Ankara and Kyiv have reached an all-time high.

The two countries initially agreed to reach $10 billion in bilateral trade but then raised it to $20 billion.

In September, Oleksandr Los, CEO of Antonov stated that the company aims to cooperate with the Turkish aviation industry for the production of AN-178 aircraft.

Also, Ukraine plans to buy 50 Bayraktar TB2 combat drones and set up a large-scale assembly line for the unmanned aircraft targeted for export. It has already received a dozen Bayraktar combat drones.
