Given the degree that SK has been working with Poland, who has been working very closely with Ukraine for lots of very obvious reasons, I am sure they are plugged into the frontline. Probably better than Iran and China because I imagine Ukraine is honest about how things are performing, unlike Russia. Lots of layers of bullshit to cut through on that end because honesty can make you deader quicker than obfuscating, waffling and pointing fingers.

A lot of what you need for a drone are jellybean parts. Especially the FPV ones. Just look at Adafruit or Seeed Studio for good examples of what is cheaply available on the hobbyist side of things for electronics. 9 degrees of freedom inertial measurement units are readily available, just to pick one critical component. It really wouldn't be hard for SK to come up to speed if they haven't already. I'd be surprised if they haven't a program to make the KF-21 remotely piloted, if not the combat versions of the T-50. Poland is likely agitating for both.
