On February 3, Ukrainian defense minister Oleksii Reznikov announced the state's work on a program to develop state-owned air and missile defense capabilities.
“We have our excellent invest.com/investing-in-ukraine/starting-business-in-ukraine/build-an-enterprise/" rel="dofollow">enterprises: design bureau Luch, and Yuzhnoe, and Iskra, and Motor Sich. I hope that we will still have a predominantly Ukrainian air defense system,” Oleksii Reznikov.
We remind you that Turkish Baykatar drones will be produced based on Ukrainian engines from Motor Sich.
“We have our Ukrainian air defense. Of course, they are not perfect. To this end, a 10-year missile program has been developed and is already being approved by the National Security and Defense Council. It was prepared by the Ministry of defense together with the Armed Forces. It provides for estimated funding for 10 years of ₴250 bln (around $884 mln). But now all this is being calculated, the project will be approved by the National Security and Defense Council, and accordingly, a state target program approved by the parliament will be written for this, and this will be a separate line in the budget of Ukraine for 10 years,” the minister of defense said.
