  1. They are also producing 125mm tank ammunition, 75mm low-pressure recoilless cannon ammunition, hand grenades and many other items. It is good to see them becoming less dependent on the fickle will of foreign nations.

  2. Does anyone know why they’re using brass for the cartridge? Most 7.62 and 5.45 X 39 mm rounds from Warsaw pact countries use laquered steel casings. Is this a nod towards NATO stanag?

  3. That’s awesome to see. I know that a lot of the money we’ve sent them has been towards rebuilding and building their own arms manufacturing

  4. Anyone know the details of why they lost the ability? I’m guessing the Soviet ammo manufacturing for small arms was strategically seized in the Donbas in 2014?

    Always interesting how the Russians planned this war for so long. I bet Russia/partisans seized a lot of ammo stores and manufacturing immediately in 2014. I remember that crazy storage facility Wagner found with so many Ww2 weapons in storage, and wondered if Russia had better Soviet maps than Ukraine (the Avdivka sewer network exploit etc). Now’s the time to use these Warsaw stores up (Czech found a lot), if UKR is moving to NATO standards.

  5. Product of us tax dollars for infrastructure and agriculture. No problem building americas gun factory overseas and putting UA on it.

  6. Give them a few years and they’ll be selling that stuff over here. Looks like good stuff. I’d run a box.

  7. Bro I pray once Ukraine secures their freedom that they export surplus to USA because I think my next firearm purchase is gonna be a 5.45 ak

  8. I can’t wait to be able to buy cheap, high quality 5.45×39 from Ukraine and support its export economy after the war is over
