The War Zone
After three-and-a-half years of defending against constant Russian missile and drone attacks, Ukraine has used up a great deal of its stocks of old Soviet interceptors, as well as donated Western types, which are in increasing demand around the world. As the U.S. and allies look wearily toward potential future conflicts of their own, their ability to continue flowing these weapons to Ukraine is diminishing. Faced with ever-increasing barrages from rapidly improving Russian missiles and drones, Ukraine is turning inward, relying on local companies to develop new interceptors and launchers to fire them.
