Direct proof of use
The GA-10FPV-AI is documented in the 2014 Russia-Ukraine War through Lithuanian procurement notices, Granta Autonomy's September 2024 contract announcement, and later reporting on delivery to Ukraine. Granta Autonomy announced a Lithuanian Ministry of National Defence contract for the FPV GA-10FPV-AI quadcopter and said the new unmanned aerial vehicles would be supplied to both the Lithuanian military and the Ukrainian armed forces.
Business Insider later reported that Granta Autonomy had delivered 1,000 GA-10FPV-AI quadcopters to Ukraine, that the type could be used for attack and surveillance, and that the company held a contract to send nearly 4,000 more to Ukraine.

Timeline
On 26 August 2024, Lithuania's Ministry of National Defence said its Defence Resources Agency had signed contracts with five Lithuanian companies, including Granta Autonomy, for FPV combat drones. The ministry said nearly 5,000 of those drones were allocated to Ukraine's armed forces, with launch and control equipment, accessories, and training included.
On 26 September 2024, Granta Autonomy identified the GA-10FPV-AI as its FPV quadcopter under a EUR 1 million Lithuanian Ministry of National Defence contract. Defense News reported the same day that almost 1,000 GA-10FPV-AI platforms were included in the contract and that first deliveries to Ukraine were expected by the end of September.
On 11 October 2024, Lithuania's Ministry of National Defence reported that the first Lithuanian combat drones had reached military warehouses for Lithuania and Ukraine. That notice described the drones as combat air drones intended to crash into a target and explode, and said Ukrainian-frontline-style tests had preceded the contracts.

Operational role
The sourced record supports a Ukrainian-side role rather than a detailed incident log. Lithuanian official notices describe a combat-drone support package for Ukraine, while Granta and specialist reporting identify the GA-10FPV-AI as a compact FPV quadcopter with a payload of up to 3 kg, autonomous mission capability in radio-silent or GNSS-denied conditions, and configurable video links and cameras.
The strongest open-source statement on use is the 2025 Business Insider report, which says GA-10FPV-AI quadcopters delivered to Ukraine can be used for attack and surveillance. The available sources do not identify specific Ukrainian units, exact battlefield locations, or individually documented strike incidents for this model.
