Wasn't Ukraine the main hub for development and production of the more advanced weapons during Soviet times?
It would be kind of ironic if Ukraine surpasses Russia, and take over the Russian exports after the war.

Anyways Ukraine has for sure exceeded all expectations in this unjustifiable war against them.

Yes tanks and ships too. The Moskva was constructed in Ukraine.

Antonov was made in Ukraine too. The biggest cargo airplane ever built was the Antonov 225. That plane was absolutely insane, and could carry diesel locomotives and whatnot.

Antonov is still an operational Ukrainian company and they operate a number of 124s. It’s a real shame about the 225 though. Maybe it can come back with the spare airframe but seems like a slim chance.
