🔗 The application form of the 1st Separate UAS Center.
The interview takes place online, and together we will choose a position for you, taking into consideration your desires, experience, and skills. Our experienced recruiters will help you and answer all your questions.
Our unit has been identified by the General Staff as a priority unit. This means that we can immediately enlist you. To do that, we inform the regional recruitment center that we plan to mobilize you directly to our unit.
We prepare and send a referral for the PME (preliminary medical examination) to the TRC (territorial recruitment center) at the place of your registration. Remember, we are always in touch, ready to advise and help you.
After completing the preliminary medical examination, you will have time to finalize some civilian matters and fully commit to your military service. You are already our recruit, but there is a lot of training ahead. From our unit, you will proceed on a 50-day basic training program. If you have an officer’s rank, the procedure will be slightly different: you will attend an officer’s course at one of the Higher Military Educational Institutions, which will last 30 days.
After completing the basic training, you return to your unit. Now you will receive professional practise and adaptation according to your position of choice.

Our center’s permanent location is in the Dnipro region. For security reasons, the soldiers of the 1st Center live remotely within the city of Dnipro or near it. Therefore, service in the center for engineering and technical units, support units, and combat units at the stages of preparation for combat missions or recovery takes place around Dnipro city.
Enrollment to our military unit through the recruitment process is carried out at the end of each month, so the question of how long this process will take for you is rather individual. On average, a recruit’s path from the moment of filling out a questionnaire and interviewing with our HR specialists to official enrollment takes from one to one and a half months.
Your personal information is kept confidential in our unit. We do not share this information with anyone without your prior consent.
Our center is in the reserve of the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. This means that in addition to the regular allowance (from UAH 20 000 per month), all soldiers of the regiment will receive an additional remuneration of UAH 30 000 per month.
When performing combat missions, the center’s soldiers can receive additional remuneration – the so-called combat allowance – of up to UAH 100,000 per month. Therefore, a soldier of the center receives from UAH 50 000 to 120 000 per month.
The 1st Separate UAS Center performs special combat missions across the entire front line and therefore needs specialists with specific skills and mindset for specific positions.
The biggest guarantee of your getting into the desired position is that we are interested in the effective fulfillment of all our tasks and see no point in deceiving people. On the contrary, our recruiters will accompany you at all stages of the recruitment process to ensure that you get to us and to the position of your choice.
