An art installation in the form of the Iron Throne from the TV series "Game of Thrones" has appeared under the KMDA building on Khreschatyk. However, this throne is not made of swords, but of metal drones.
As " Evening Kyiv " writes, the "Throne of the Winner" installation was created to tell the people of Kyiv about the "Territorial Defense of the Sky" ("TRON") project and to raise funds for combat drones. The mission of the project is to ensure that each combat unit of the Russian Armed Forces is sufficiently equipped with FPV drones.
In order to draw attention to our project, we decided to present a throne made of iron drones, which were specially made for it. We also plan to present it in other cities of Ukraine, says Vladyslav Sakin, a serviceman and curator of the TRON project.
During the week, everyone will be able to take a photo on the "Throne of the Winner". And in the future, it is planned to be auctioned to raise funds for drones for the military.
We have a reference to the Iron Throne, but from drones. It was called the "Throne of the Winner". I hope we will win as quickly as possible, protecting our guys, our territories, - adds Sakin.
The installation was created free of charge in two weeks by metal sculptors Dmytro Shiyanov, Yevhen Sopko and Ivan Belov. Metal drones became the main elements of the design - there are about 200 of them in the design. The weight of the throne is about 350-400 kg, and the height is 2.7 meters. It lights up in the dark.
Interestingly, the overall look of the throne was first created by ChatGPT and then refined by the sculptors.
A stand with information about the project and a QR code was placed near the throne. Anyone willing to help can go to the link and leave their contacts.
The project team says that they have decided to move away from classic fees for banks. Instead, they suggest companies buy drones from certified manufacturers.
As a reminder, five-day free courses where you can learn how to fly a drone have started at the Kyiv National Resistance Training Center. Training of future UAV operators is conducted by instructors with combat experience.
