KYIV, Ukraine — President Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky are exploring a significant agreement where the US would purchase Ukrainian drones that have seen action in conflicts, while Kyiv would commit to purchasing a range of American weapons.

In an exclusive discussion with The Post on Wednesday, Zelensky disclosed that his recent conversations with Trump focused on a potential groundbreaking deal. This agreement aims to strengthen each country’s aerial capabilities, with Ukraine proposing to share its extensive experience and insights gained from its ongoing three-year conflict with Russia.

The potential deal could be a game-changer for US military and national security efforts. Experts and officials have raised concerns that America’s current technology trails behind that of Russia and China, and that US soldiers may not be adequately equipped to operate or counter the types of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) being developed by other nations.

“The people of America need this technology, and you need to have it in your arsenal,” Zelensky told The Post of Ukraine’s latest drones, which have been able to penetrate Russia’s defenses to take out heavy bombers and hit as deep as 800 miles over the border.

“I think this is really a mega deal, a win-win, as they say,” he added.

Drone warfare has become the standout method of battle in the Ukraine war, with Moscow and Kyiv trading hundreds of aerial blows a day using the explosives-carrying UAVs.

Experts have long warned that many nations are studying the conflict to understand what a modern war would look like — with the potential devastation highlighted by the Kremlin’s ever-escalating drone bombardments on Ukraine.

With Russia now producing its Iranian-inspired suicide drones in-house, Kyiv is ramping up its own production of drones to fight back.

One of the most impressive attacks came last month when 117 Ukrainian drones took out dozens of Russian bombers stationed at four military bases in “Operation Spider Web.”

A month later, a Ukrainian drone flew 800 miles over the border to blow up a Kremlin anti-aircraft missile plant in Izhevsk.

In May, Ukraine celebrated the first time a marine drone successfully took out a Russian Su-30 fighter jet over the Black Sea.

Zelensky, who touted drones as the key tool that has allowed his country to fight back against the Russian invasion for more than three years, offered everything he’s learned while under fire to help the US and NATO prepare for the new generation of war.

“We will be ready to share this experience with America and other European partners,” he said, adding that talks were also underway with Denmark, Norway and Germany.

Experts and officials have sounded the alarm on America’s blind spot when it comes to drone technology and warfare.

“We all know the same thing. We aren’t giving the American war fighter what they need to survive warfare today,” Trent Emeneker, project manager of the Autonomy Portfolio at the military’s Defense Innovation Unit, told the New York Times.

“If we had to go to war tomorrow, do we have what we need? No,” he added.

The issues were made evident in a four-day testing camp held last month in Alaska by the defense department, which saw soldiers and private contractors repeatedly crash and fail to take down prototype drones, The Times reported.

Some of the drones failed to launch altogether, and one of the drones that could fly ended up hitting the wrong target.

The potential “mega deal” also comes as US Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth issued a new order to “cut red tape” on US drone production.

The Pentagon memo highlighted the need for the US to keep pace as military drone production skyrockets around the world.

“We were brought here to rebuild the military and match capabilities to the threats of today,” he said.

“So while our adversaries have produced millions of cheap drones before us, we were mired in bureaucratic red tape, not anymore.”

Hegseth notably made his announcement with a video featuring drones produced by Neros, a California start-up that tested and developed its technology in Ukraine, with the company tapped to provide 6,000 UAVs to Kyiv this year.
