Ukraine intends to produce its own air defense means - Presidential Office

The office of the President of Ukraine announced the arrival of experts who will develop a plan for the production of weapons in our country. Ukraine plans to organize the production of its own air defense systems. This was stated by Andriy Ermak, the head of the Presidential Office, at a meeting with journalists, reports "RBC-Ukraine". He noted that there is already a fundamental decision on this issue. Its implementation is planned in the near future.

Yermak announced the arrival of experts who will develop a weapon production plan. "The plan for our own production of everything we need, first of all, the means of air defense," said OP. Each state today, as noted by the NSDC Secretary Alexei Danilov, is engaged in its own weapons and does not want to share with someone. Quite complex processes are currently taking place, and the domestic military-industrial complex works "at full capacity".

On September 29, Danilov noted that the modern world does not allow to close all our needs by 100 percent. The issue of ammunition production is especially important because there is no powder production in Ukraine. It is known that Ukroboronprom has established the production of 122 and 152 mm artillery shells at NATO production facilities. The governments of Ukraine and Poland have agreed to sign a memorandum regarding the creation of a joint venture for weapons.

Given the transition of the Ukrainian army to NATO standards, there is anxiety about the future prospects of the domestic military-industrial complex. France and Ukraine discussed the joint production of weapons. On September 29, the Minister of the Armed Forces of France Sebastien Lecorton was on September 29, with which they raised the issues of joint production of weapons samples. We will remind, NATO has made an important statement about military assistance for Ukraine.
