According to him, the adoption of this package of laws will create conditions for the development of Ukraine’s defense industry, strengthening cooperation with partners, and expanding export potential.
So that in the future Ukraine enters the TOP-5 arms exporters in the world
RecallIn the current version of the draft laws on Defence City, the aircraft manufacturing industry may be outside the scope of new benefits and preferences. As explained by the Aerospace Association of Ukraine, none of the specialized enterprises — including “Antonov” or “Motor Sich” — meet the proposed inclusion criteria, as they are not purely defense enterprises, but are aircraft manufacturing entities that are engaged not only in scientific, scientific and technical developments, engineering, manufacturing of parts, but also in servicing civil aviation. The Association proposes to include enterprises from the already existing government list of aircraft manufacturing entities, which undergo strict verification, in the list of Defence City residents.
