it is produced in accordance with certain standards that cannot be violated if we are talking about the same caesar, a french self-propelled howitzer, it is also produced in accordance with those standards and here. therefore, you know, a very wide field for corruption is cut off, which can be apply if we were talking about other types of weapons or other standards, but when we talk about western standards, you understand. i myself participated in the work of those conferences in brussels, eh, these standards were developed for five or seven years ago, each standard, you know, it is already a joint decision of all countries, and no one will simply allow you to fall below this standard. in this way, we can choose the best from the best for today. goals plus for us only i

specially emphasized the provision that the money of our allies, because here we are talking about what we can be allowed to buy and they monitor the purchases of exactly what can be of high quality and expedient, well that but at the beginning, we also said that the arms market is no longer there . you correctly noticed that it is the same market. like all the others, yes, for example, the agrarian market. and here, for example, let's give an imaginary situation. we are sitting four manufacturers of water glasses, and here the news is announced that tv channel 1 +1 allocates 20 million hryvnias for the purchase of glass, yes, all of us. what do we do ? well, at this time, there is a shortage of glasses on the plus side. they are not there, they are needed as of yesterday, under these conditions, understanding that

the market is closed, this competition for the supply of weapons is taking place, we understand that it is possible there, yes , corruption is such an issue, well, it is quite delicate , especially you very clearly noticed that there are nato standards, there is foreign money here too well, corruption is minimal, it is acceptable, but that’s great. competition , how it happens and who competes with each other is a very interesting question. it consists in the fact that simply saying who exactly competes is very difficult because war sets its own tasks war sets its own tasks and you know very well that we are now talking to you about such certain standards that set the so-called bottom line below which we cannot fall, and here it is already further er life and war and the logic and philosophy of combat already er gives us additional requirements to

this weaponry and military equipment, that is, for example, er, er, the same blatant example, do i need a fleet, as of today, our fleet does not have one. we need or do we need an aircraft carrier today or even a cruiser such as the moscow type or something similar? probably not, and the simple question between the manufacturers is what they can offer, and again , price and quality play a role here, as everywhere else on the market, and in accordance with the requirements that and the war and the available funds and opportunities already then develop, and the offer on the market, in addition , it is necessary to understand that it is one thing to simply know how to buy weapons, but it is a completely different matter, and this is a very

important element when working in this market, who can provide better and more widespread conditions for the operation and maintenance of the repair of this weapon , because you know, if, for example, we bought something extremely new, something powerful, but it actually performs the role of a disposable lighter until the first breakdown, that is, how will this weapon be used afterwards, how to repair, service, where in the first place and so on and the like, that is, you know, it is not just about the type or unit of the weapon itself, but about the whole complex, and here the field is very wide, and it is here that the question of who will provide more attractive conditions for us to use this weapon and you have given well, just a brilliant example of why we signed such a contract for the crab, and because we can service the carp on the territory of poland, that is, the logistics are cheaper. this crab meets our requirements and we are

guaranteed we receive full support from the polish side because we understand this system. and if we talk about other systems, what can we say? for example, why don't they give us leopards, for example, today? well, first of all leopards, they have not been produced for a long time, secondly , in order to service leopards, they will have to be transported all the way to germany or create a service system somewhere, and it could even be poland, but imagine the cost of this process, and this cost must necessarily falls into the price of this product at the end, who will pay the consumer? that is, you and i. and here, you know, it is not just about the element of weapons, like there, for example, we are talking about the complete complex of this, and this complex is quite the high additional cost of this particular process, and here is

the competition, and because, as i said, the standards are, well, they are actually the same and they are permissible . rather, they cannot be lowered below a certain e-e level, and this is about how and what can ensure further operation, that's all, that is, the main thing is not to sell, the main thing is to get service contracts, repairs, renewal of ammunition supply, and so on, it's really a complex issue. we will return to our topic in a few minutes and we will talk with our next speaker with oleksandr kovalenko on the same topic, we will meet, we will re-bandage, we will defeat the stubble, news together, we are strong heroes, we return from the war, tired but not broken. maksym provided cover for combat equipment and received a serious injury, but the spirit of a ukrainian officer is so just don't defeat

maksym in the future, he wants to remain a guardian of peace and peace in ukraine, so let's celebrate the feat of our heroes with a smile, with sincere thanks, we join the all-ukrainian flash mob, honor the hero, those who post 24/7 know the price of human life, the guys are still alive, they save sometimes by doing the impossible, the best, incredible, and the defense of our state, you are our medical angels, undertakers, battalion

doctors . like an iron one, so that it could be restrained by bullets with a military one, we will give the car higher. here we will raise it and put it on wheels and we will not stop as long as there are needs , we will work and do 24 hours a day for a day, we rolled up our sleeves, i, the auto craftsmen, are making their contribution, now this is fire, this is pumped into our joint victory because the boy’s car ukraine is working kateryna osadchaya’s project to search for the missing find their own today at 9:30 p.m. parents and children are separated by war like a child chisi and she is a mother who lost her contact with my son in mariupol, abandon him mariupol

was very thundering there and people were already hiding and those who could, that daughter who is looking for her mother in zaporizhzhia, family stories that unite one thing, help to find relatives, watch and join the search together we invincible today in marathon the only news at 9:30 p.m. we will convince the paragame we will win that you are not the news together we are strong 1+1 returns to the air with you about the ethnic group we are talking about the world arms market, how it changed at the beginning of the full-scale war and where ukraine has a place in it oleksandr kovalenko joins our broadcast, he is a military expert on the network, he is better known as an evil odessan, and he constantly follows this military topic in his social

networks. at the beginning of july, the center for strategic communications of the armed forces of ukraine reported that the united states department of defense is considering 1,300 proposals from 800 companies for the production of innovative weapons for ukraine. the pentagon is determined by the ideas of the possible production of weapons for ukraine and the american military. combating unmanned aerial systems of secure communication identified as key for ukraine in military needs and so on. i have a question. it seems that ukraine is really considered as a test site for weapons. what kind of company is this, what kind of weapons are they? can you tell us for our viewers and tell us in general that this is a test site? i did not agree with this

because these are the conditions, these are the conditions, these are the first conditions, when exactly this weapon can be used as a format of a full-scale war, that is, when it is used in a full-scale war, and against an enemy that is not some group insurgents or terrorists, and it has both protection against these weapons and some countermeasures, for example , if we are talking about even the same atgms, then everyone knows very well how these atgms work, for example, against t-72 tanks or t-62 t55 tanks for example, how it was raw, but not much. who has seen how they work, for example, on the t-90 tanks, a breakthrough. this is what is interesting, and in this case, it is so. this is a new experience for the manufacturers of this weapon, to improve it, to see what it is and what it is

. also imagines if we say, for example, about against ship-based missile systems, and also, uh, i can’t remember in the last 40 years when it was exactly against the ship-based missile system of any country. it was used, for example, against the flagship of some fleet, but it was used on the moscow missile cruiser. but it was not a harpoon, it was our ukrainian neptun r 360 but nevertheless, we can see that the fire station worked quite well in vasylibeh, and the question arises from all this that the russian air defense systems, especially a-a sea-based ones, do not work very well, precisely about modern vs. naval missile system, that is, in this context, you can consider this set of weapons and tools that our international partners provide us directly, and the united states, and how

they will do it, how all these weapons will evolve, exactly with the conclusions that they will draw from the experience of the conflict in ukraine and we will see the russian federation, i hope that not even in the medium term, but much sooner, mr. oleksandr. we are also now seeing the active armament of nato and the european union there every week there are new releases about the arrival of this or that sample, and here, well, the most interesting thing is to find out . and who makes money from this, who uses the money of taxpayers in the european union, the united states, is it possible to single out some of the largest suppliers, or perhaps the largest. i want to add that a year ago, yes, - and all over the world there was a total economy due to the corona crisis and there was no money for anything and now all the countries of europe are increasing the share of their gdp on armaments and no one is against it and

everyone understands that we are talking about tens of billions dollars, and then really, who will earn from this, who will share this money, so now we see how the russian federation has already become a greater threat than the coronavirus, and therefore there is nothing strange about it. and yes, really. of course, this is a company, this is a military-industrial military- an industrial company that produces weapons, first of all, we see how the shares of lokhit martin are growing now, and how we see how the shares of boing boing are also growing. it produces not only airplanes, namely, if the audience does not know, it is also uh types of weapons and therefore a really this is the first time first, and companies from the usa, then these are already other companies , for example, reinkal is from germany, and they are also from

raymetal. and now they are also receiving contracts. and in general, the attention in the world to military-technical cooperation is increasing, even among ukraine, which, well, is enough for a long time, they used the russian federation as an alternative to western weapons, because it was cheap, it shot, it was cheap , so they could afford it, especially algeria, for example, and india. here they are enough many bought weapons in the russian federation , but a few years ago in the united states, a law like katz was issued, which blocked these contacts, namely, thanks to him, the exports of the russian federation fell a little, such an anabiosis, and now it is possible at all to say that a serious blow has already been inflicted on russia's

weapons export capabilities because, after all, russia exports weapons not only in order to replenish its budget in some way, this is also a replenishment of the budget for its revanchist ambitions and also it is precisely because of the sale of weapons that she buys the loyalty of some countries, especially in africa, and buys loyalty. and when she grants loans, and then she herself pays all the loans, that is, some countries in africa receive these weapons, well, for free . such and such a corruption scheme. and another very interesting point is that the countries of eastern europe are now providing us with a very large number of their warehouses and their storage facilities , namely soviet-style weapons - these are tanks, these are other bm, this is ammunition, and instead of these weapons, they in the future, they will also receive weapons from the already international partners of these countries, well , that is, again, the usa, germany, great britain

, and others. and that is, they also carry out such contracts, because they are very interesting . the main challenge is the pandemic, so the countries rushed to negotiate with private companies, in particular, for the purchase of vaccines , and here again as we have already established together with you that the demand for arms in ukraine is growing, that is, now the producers of arms to the world, roughly speaking, have they raised their prices or changed, well, it is known that this information is not for the public, it is commercial confidential, but still, is there you, your information, you are in charge, it is still possible, even your thoughts . now, weapons on a global scale have increased in price, fallen, or what is being done? so now we can

state that the cost of weapons has indeed increased, but still, it is attributed to each type weapons, tanks, planes, almost all, almost all positions, we see that now the price of weapons is rising, but this is primarily attributed to inflation , we can now state a-a exactly that the increase in inflation throughout the world a-a therefore we attribute first of all, there are some other aspects to this. well, that’s another question, that is, i want to ask about. well, we already understood that russia is like that. well, it finds itself on the sidelines of the world arms market, and the samples demonstrate a complete inability to counteract modern technologies. and what is happening in the arms market of china, we see that it, well, its army, well, looks quite powerful. however, we do not see in the statistics any large export potentials of china's export supplies of its

weapons anywhere in general. x years it was, well, in general, there was a kind of experience on the samples of the soviet era, according to which they built their military-industrial complex, and after the 2000s, it already went away from the symbiosis of this er-e attempt to somehow copy and not only the soviet samples how about the same planes, the mig-19 and others, and they already tried to copy western models, and that is, in the pdr, it is generally a symbiosis of the soviet survey of the russian one, because in russia they bought a very large number of, for example, e-e weapons such as 635 fighters but they bought the wrong one because they didn’t have enough fighters and because they needed

to learn the technology of using technology in engines e-e to these very fighters a and in all a engines, that is, after that they bought more zrk s-400 not because they did not have anti-aircraft missile systems of their air defense, and because they tried to study the very principles and technologies that were used in the s400, although they had the s300, but they understood very well that the s400 is a deep modernization of the stryi air defense and many other positions, and what are they as they used , we can now see how they work much better in matters of the military-industrial complex than they do for the same russians, this is quite serious in their power, and in matters of providing for their land forces, that the navy with

china is in general well, it is fully provided but really, it looks like they have not very big export opportunities, and first of all why because well, here there are only one for the leaders of purchasing chinese weapons, this is pakistan, a rather closed country, so it can be stated somehow in general, what kind of opportunities do they have for exporting weapons, well, it’s quite difficult, but it’s a fact that pakistan now has armed itself precisely at the expense of china, not only pakistan, many other countries, even belarus buys bm from china, well, it’s armored cars, and that’s why now we we can say that it has quite powerful capabilities, first of all due to er. it is interesting, namely, the technical and technological capabilities of a-a production. and as far as quality products are concerned, they are quite large in terms of quality, well, it is still better to buy western samples. you mentioned

pakistan now, i remember a year ago there was an exhibition in the united arab emirates in abu dhabi, and then , on the very first day, it was pakistan that signed a contract with ukraine, and it was pakistan that was most interested in ukrainian weapons samples, so everything is correct ah moreover, pakistan has a rather large number of tanks and 80 that are in service. but we had a very serious cooperation in this direction, and at one time it was pakistan that intended to buy ukrainian tanks oplot. well, we see that they they did, and the choice of chinese tanks, well, it’s not surprising, again, ah , but still, we really have a service, we, uh, we provided pakistan with a very large number of power units for t-80 tanks, for example well, these are engines in the first place and

spare parts, that is, we have quite serious cooperation not only with pakistan, but also with other countries in the middle east, for example, and for example saudi arabia and other countries, that is, our prospects in the future if it were not for this full-scale war, this is a full-scale invasion of our country of military-technical cooperation with other countries of asia, the middle east and others, and there were quite serious prospects, this is true. it seems to me that, on the contrary, you say that we had prospects. it seems to me that they are only are opening now for our defense complex, let's give ukrainian weapons and about our defense potential, we realized with the beginning of the war that we have to not only be proud and brag about javelins, but we ourselves have something to produce and something to be proud of, we compiled the top 10 ukrainian weapons proved itself in the war against russia based on the opinions of our military military experts so, the top 10 ukrainian weapons that proved themselves in the

war against russia, there is no first place here, all are equal and all incredible btr-4 is completely ukrainian 88% development, it consists of domestic components, since 2002 the design bureau of morozov machine-building has been working on it, how it crushes the loprashinsk bmp, you can watch endlessly come on come on plus minus one minus one car the next miracle beast anti-tank missile complex tight development of the kyiv state design bureau better good advertising for stugna, the march battles in the chernihiv region, at the same time, stugna is worth

$20,000, but evelyn is worth 75,000 stugna, they even dedicated a song to her, she went, she went, let 's go come on i want to tell about great miracles and not at all about who has a sausage although if it's about that, guys, calm down and stop looking into your pants thighs are long-distance sleepers km thighs per second 200 m thighs are 130 mm and this is already a military song in diameter only and these are far from the only samples, can ukraine be proud of it? neptune is an anti- ship installation, so who was able to sink moscow , well, the ship sank. well, now we will have to sink the city as well. there was another equally impressive tank. it was a

kharkiv development. it has dynamic protection than which saves the lives of soldiers. when a tank is directly hit . well, the cossack 2m armored car is the ministry of defense, it is called a compact battleship, and our military simply calls it an awesome device. and then the eyes of the ukrainian artillery drone will fit two fighters, they conduct reconnaissance thanks to it, and the great advantage of this device is that which is capable of carrying a bomb load weighing up to 3 kg, also a baby machine gun, a deep modification of the kalashnikov machine gun , is most often used in special operations forces under airborne assault troops sniper alligator rifle, developed by khado holding, it is so powerful that it can work against armored fighting vehicles of the enemy. well, an important role in the liberation and cleansing of the russian plague was played by the

ukrainian bohdan installation. so this is the first ukrainian self-propelled artillery installation of the elite caliber of 155 mm produced in ukraine and this is what helped to liberate the island of change, this is exactly what valeriy zaluzhnyi said. well, experts and military personnel highlight the rsv stormtrooper - this is the development of the shepetiv repair plant is excellent the replacement of the soviet missile systems of the hurricane hurricane, we showed a video, yes, this is how we made our selection of the top 10, can you tell if there is a future for all these samples that we were talking about, well, even you groaned and demonstrated, but i want to say that it is difficult to now everyone is watching, and did anyone see that on the monitor before this, it is often precisely these control points, and before this, anti-tank missiles, and there is an arab

avias , and this is not anyone, the question did not arise. ukraine is happening they tried to outwit, in fact, they manage to saudi arabia - this is not the first year. and when it is an export anti-tank missile that goes to saudi arabia, to myanmar, to morocco, to jordan, qatar , it is used there. algeria also has an anti-tank missile in service since 2010. stugna p, and therefore there is nothing surprising, yes, there are really great prospects for many of the samples of our weapons, but it is necessary to understand that today a large number of e-e is the production of enterprises that produced weapons, they or are located over the temporarily occupied territories

or they were destroyed or damaged precisely by the missile option of the russian occupiers, and therefore we can still talk about some kind of perspective. i think that it is possible that we really have a very great potential, but this potential will already be realized after the war in the first place not only, well, in addition to the experience that we had until 2022, and the experience that we gained during the period of using western models of weapons, and therefore i believe that this potential will only grow, oleksandr, very briefly, if possible, in conclusion, are there any examples of the unsuccessful use of some of the latest models? during this war, we are talking about successful models. we have heard a lot about them, but somehow we don’t hear about their effectiveness, maybe

you still know some examples or we are just wrong about it, they just don’t talk about it. therefore, now if we mean, for example, switch blade, then we only now started to receive videos of their use, so i think that it is the same as with you remember a lot of talk about bayraktars. and where are all these videos about the use of bayraktars on the fact that bayraktars were used more as reconnaissance and than in the distance, precisely during this premeditated invasion of ukraine, just like switch blade, we learn a very large number of precisely how did they use the facts, the facts were used, but later on, in general, i can’t say that we had any such catastrophic problems precisely with the extensive use of which weapons, which we know about, which we have heard about, and therefore everything depends from exactly under what conditions and with exactly what
