Hungary has placed an order for Hero kamikaze drones from Rheinmetall-UVision venture, with deliveries set to begin in 2024 and end in 2025. The order is in the 'low three-digit, million-euro range.' The drones are known for their ability to hit targets up to 200 kilometers away and are used to select high-value targets and carry out high-precision strikes. Rheinmetall has been building a production site in Hungary for its Lynx infantry fighting vehicle and is also constructing an ammunition production facility for the Hungarian government. Hungary's NATO membership is frequently mentioned in Rheinmetall's announcements about business dealings in the country.
