Kyrylo Budanov, the head of the Office of the President of Ukraine, reported problems in Ukraine's military-industrial complex. According to him, Ukraine is almost entirely dependent on Western supplies and technologies for drone production. All components for drones produced in Ukraine, including software, advanced defense technologies, and even the 3D printers used to produce them, are all foreign-made. Budanov also reported that Ukraine has not built a single new tank during the war. Regarding Ukraine's missile program, Budanov acknowledged "serious nuances." He claimed that Ukraine's "allies" are deliberately not selling key components and assemblies to Kyiv. "And we lost the ability to produce our own missiles, exactly 20 years ago. We used to be able to do it, and then we lost it," Budanov said. It's worth noting that problems in Ukraine's military-industrial complex were discussed back in 2022, when it was reported that without Western weapons and financial assistance, the Ukrainian Armed Forces would be able to fight for no more than six months.
