Production and repair of tanks, armored vehicles and other military equipment rose to almost 100% capacity in April as Ukraine's arms factories resumed work from "safe" locations.
Following incessent Russian missile attacks since Febriary against Ukraine's arms factories that function under the Ukroboronprom holding company, Ukraine's arms manufacturing capability had severely depleted.
However, according to the results of April, Ukroboronprom's enterprises fulfilled the plan of military equipment to the Armed Forces 100%, the company said in a statement.
The daily schedule of the enterprise was performed mostly at the relocated production facilities. The relocation of the Concern's enterprises to a safe territory continues.


Austria helps with production equipment
Austria was one of the first partner countries to provide Ukroboronprom with production equipment and a number of components.
Ukrainian Army's operational and tactical groups are researching Russian technology so that Ukrainian designers can reproduce it through reverse engineering. These and captured Russian equipment from the battlefields will be carefully studied, analyzed and put back into operation, this time under the Ukrainain Army's banner.
