If they make it through this, this new defense industry they have is going to help them rebuild the nation via export.
Ukraine will have more advanced technology than America at some point.
Mass produced anyway. I have a feeling DARPA has a lot of not in production things going on that we have no idea about, that could see the light of day if needed.
I hope Ukraine won’t just sell technologies, cause there are talks about USA trying to get that for 100b. Not a small number, but I doubt USA would appraise their junk fairly, while these tech could be one of the biggest source of income in the long run.
They are already the leader at Frankensystems, whether it’s attaching Western missiles to Soviet tech or innovative commercial off the shelf drone adaptations.
Europe would be wise to throw money their way for some of this tech.
