Rheinmetall CEO Papperger spoke with disdain of Ukrainian drone manufacturers, The Atlantic reports.
What's Ukraine's innovation? They haven't achieved any technological breakthrough. It's just playing with Legos. It's just Ukrainian housewives. They have 3D printers in their kitchens, and they make drone parts. They produce their little drones and say, "Wow!" And that's great. So be it. But this isn't Lockheed Martin, General Dynamics, or Rheinmetall technology, he said.
