Ukraine’s greatest achievement in this sector has involved drone weapons; the country is now producing 90 percent of needed drone components, according to Digital Transformation Minister Mykhailo Fedorov. Ukraine is also accelerating production of artillery shells, with plans to produce NATO-standard 155mm shells later this year.
