funny that I just saw some slop from ukraine saying ukraine's producing more artillery or some shit than all of europe. and funny enough I believe them since wunderwaffen production's so monitized it's surprising they've produced as much as they did prior to the war
Heavy industry was something that the USSR absolutely excelled at, I would assume that much of that industry is still kicking around.
Wasn't a lot of it was gutted in Ukraine?
I can't speak to present Ukrainian conditions, but there are many others here who can
And probably a lot less than before 2014, since they lost Donbas which is a heavy industry centre (they also tried to kill it with shock therapy after coup which was one of the factors of Donbas wanting autonomy).
