In 2025, the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine reported the introduction of over 1300 new types of military equipment and weaponry, marking a 25% increase compared to the previous year. This was announced by Defense Minister Denys Shmyhal on his Facebook page.

The largest share includes:

• over 550 drones,
• more than 270 types of ammunition,
• over 50 vehicles,
• 11 types of armored vehicles, including special armored cars,
• 13 types of firearms.

“This is the result of systematic work by Ukrainian manufacturers who not only scale up production but also develop new technological solutions for the front,” Shmyhal noted.
He emphasized that the development of the domestic defense industry is a strategic priority, and that indigenous developments and modern technologies are key to the resilience of the Ukrainian military.
In 2025, the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine allocated over 6 billion dollars to the domestic defense industry.
