The military-industrial complex of Ukraine is capable of producing its own 155 mm artillery shells and is already doing so, said the former head of the Ministry of Strategy and Industry Oleksandr Kamyshin.
Points of attention
- For the first time, Ukraine began the production of its own 155 mm artillery shells, which is a great success for the domestic military industry.
- The development of the military-industrial complex made it possible to double the production of defence equipment in Ukraine, with the possibility of further growth.
- Ukraine also produces drones with a maximum flight range of up to 1,800 km, which are already successfully used for attacks on Russian military facilities.
- Partner support and increased funding can contribute to the further development of the Ukrainian military industry.
Ukraine produces 155 mm artillery shells
The production of own ammunition was planned for a long time, and it was one of the most important goals of the domestic military industry.
I can't say much, but we started our own production of 155 mm artillery shells.
Oleksandr Kamyshin
Former head of the Ministry of Strategy and Industry of Ukraine
Previously, Ukraine did not produce projectiles of this caliber. Therefore, it is a great success for the domestic military industry, which is still suffering from insufficient funding.
Ukraine has the opportunity to increase the production of weapons, but it lacks money. Partners can help with this.
Kamyshin said that during his tenure as the head of the Ministry of Strategy and Industry, the production of defense equipment doubled. By the end of the year, it will be possible to talk about a threefold increase.
Domestic drones hit objects at a distance of 1,800 km
UAV production is well established in Ukraine. Among them are effective "bombers" that can attack targets at long distances.
The head of the Ukrainian SSR, Kyrylo Budanov, recently confirmed that Ukraine produces drones with a maximum flight range of up to 1,800 km.
All drones that fly on the territory of Russia are of domestic production. They have already proven their effectiveness by attacking military facilities and oil depots that feed the Kremlin's war machine.
