You're reading: Ukrainian government buys ‘a lot of precision weapons’

Ukraine's government has bought large amounts of modern weapons for the country's armed forces, the defense minister said on Oct. 5.

‘We must re-equip our armed forces as soon as possible. We have already bought a lot of precision weapons, some of which we haven’t had before – automated control systems, communications systems and much else that we’ve been short of in the past,’ Valeriy Heletei told reporters during a tour of arms manufacturers in Zaporizhia.
