Graduates of VITRUGAN receive MOS 216 immediately after MOS 100 based on the certificate of training from our school — either automatically or after passing an exam at a Ukrainian Armed Forces training center.
Although VITRUGAN is a certified UAV pilot (operator) training school, current legislation does not yet allow for MOS 216 to be officially granted directly through our center. However, work is underway to develop the legal framework to make this possible in the future.
