With the beginning of the war in Donbass and annexing of Crimea, Ukraine is forced to catch up in the development of arms, and modernize its army in the fasters way.

It doesn’t go so smooth all the time, but changes are clear.

Last week I wrote about the new gadget – tank helmet that can see through armor – it was presented by Israeli developers on the arms exhibition in Paris. So thus, Ukrainian Oboromprom presented the latest national arms development on the same exhibition. Latest additions are models of anti-missile systems, new models of armored vehicles and legendary BT "OPLOT", automatic guns and mortars, and a full-scale model of the modern armored vehicle "Dozor-B". Exhibition lots included the research of scientific-manufacture union “Praktika”: tactical vehicle “Kozak-II”, “Bars 6” and armored vehicle “Defender”.

I specially add many photos so you can witness this beauty. All this vehicles Ukroboromprom designs as per NATO standards, this means that they can be used not only by Ukrainian army, but by other modern armies too. Our Ukrainian equipment shifts to the world standards of quality, functionality and security.

Just within last two years Ukraine achieved more than for the previous two decades. And all this in the environment of war and economic crisis. And some people had doubts that our development was intentionally on hold? And I’d like to mention that import substitution program in military sphere works successfully and no one faces loses withouth Russian spares.
