We have ten documents that have already been signed – ten arrangements, ten agreements of different levels. Arrangements on air defense are among the most urgent for us. This includes air defense missiles – PAC-2 missiles, of course, as well as launchers for IRIS-T systems – we are grateful for them.

Six of them are aerial, and one is ground-based.

The video features 56 types of weapons, including 31 drones – long-range drones, FPVs, bombers, reconnaissance drones, strike kamikaze drones, and interceptors – as well as 7 missiles, 4 electronic warfare systems, 6 ground robotic systems, one air defense turret, 3 unmanned naval systems, and 4 specialized armored vehicles.

On the first day after Easter, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy met with members of the Ukrainian Council of Churches and Religious Organizations, extended holiday greetings, and thanked them for their important support for Ukrainian warriors and all Ukrainians during this difficult time.

On the Arms Makers’ Day, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy congratulated workers of the defense-industrial complex on their professional holiday and awarded them state honors.

The invisible heroes of our defense. Yet we see the results of their work every single day – and evil feels them every single day. These are our Ukrainian arms makers – all employees of Ukraine’s defense industrial complex. In four years, Ukraine has built a new defense industry.
