The platform will support developers of defence technologies in testing their products under real combat conditions, creating promotional videos, and fundraising.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There has been no official announcement of the initiative, but AB3 Tech already has a website and a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/ab3-tech\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">LinkedIn page<\/a>. The 3rd SAB\u2019s press office did not respond to a request for comment from Defender Media, sent on 20 May.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The brigade has only mentioned the project once on its social media\u2014back in March 2025, it reported that at the \u201cArsenal of Talents\u201d exhibition, it had \u201cpresented its own developments from the AB3Tech design bureau.\u201d The project is also <a href=\"http:\/\/stage.thedefender.media\/en\/2025\/05\/lviv-edth-may\/\">listed<\/a> as a partner of the European Defence Tech Hackathon, currently taking place in Lviv.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to the project website, since March the 3rd SAB\u2019s design bureau has significantly expanded the range of its services. Described on the landing page as a \u201cstartup studio, accelerator,&nbsp;<br>and Community within&nbsp;the Third Assault Brigade&#8221;, AB3 Tech claims the expertise of its military professionals, engineers, and entrepreneurs will help start-ups, investors, and defence companies accelerate market entry, test products in real combat conditions, and secure funding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"429\" src=\"http:\/\/stage.thedefender.media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/photo_2025-02-05-14.33.42-1024x429.webp\" alt=\"\u0412\u0456\u0439\u0441\u044c\u043a\u043e\u0432\u0438\u0439 \u043d\u0435\u0441\u0435 \u043d\u0430 \u043f\u043b\u0435\u0447\u0456 \u0434\u0440\u043e\u043d\" class=\"wp-image-3956\" style=\"aspect-ratio:16\/9;object-fit:cover\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stage.thedefender.media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/photo_2025-02-05-14.33.42-1024x429.webp 1024w, https:\/\/stage.thedefender.media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/photo_2025-02-05-14.33.42-300x126.webp 300w, https:\/\/stage.thedefender.media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/photo_2025-02-05-14.33.42-768x322.webp 768w, https:\/\/stage.thedefender.media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/photo_2025-02-05-14.33.42.webp 1432w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image Credits: The 3rd Separate Assault Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What services does AB3 Tech offer defence companies?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The AB3 Tech website outlines several services for defence technology developers. First and foremost is military products testing as&nbsp;a&nbsp;service. Developers are promised real-life combat testing with rapid feedback and practical insights from the experienced soldiers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The second service is startup acceleration for early-stage defence tech firms. AB3 Tech offers collaboration to pre-seed and seed startups whose fundraising could benefit from brigade-issued letters of interest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">AB3 Tech also provides defence businesses with a promotional content production service\u2014offering authentic footage of defence products operating in real combat scenarios, as well as testimonial videos featuring feedback from Ukrainian soldiers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">AB3 Tech\u2019s pioneering business model has drawn attention from industry figures, including Genesis Tech\u2019s Chief of Stuff, Serhii Stupak. In his view, the model is bound to become a case study in business schools and marketing textbooks. \u201cUnbelievable that a military unit that fights Russians every day is offering
