In recent years, the Ukrainian military industry has mainly been engaged in the repair and modernization of old Soviet equipment.

At the same time, due to the lack of supplies from Russia, Oplot tanks are no longer being produced. How many scandals there were with the infamous Molot mortars. The Kremenchug automobile plant, which produced military trucks and armored vehicles, became bankrupt.

However, there is one direction where the Ukrainian military-industrial complex not only managed to increase production, but also to create new models. We are talking about anti-tank guided missiles. For example, three years ago it was reported that the AFU received 200 anti-tank missile systems "Stugna" and about 3 thousand. ATGM to them.

These ATGMs have a laser guidance system. Range of application -5000 m. The tandem warhead is capable of piercing 800 mm of armor. For these complexes, thermal imaging sights were purchased abroad.

Currently, it is reported about the creation of a new missile system "Amulet". It also has semi-automatic laser guidance and a thermal imaging sight. It is possible to use missiles of two calibers.

130 mm-a range of 5000 m, with a tandem cumulative warhead (armor penetration of 800 mm for dynamic protection);

152 mm-a range of 5100 m, with the same design of the tandem cumulative warhead, but with greater armor penetration-1000 mm for dynamic protection.

For both variants, high-explosive fragmentation combat units are also created.

Currently, the BRDM-2 armored reconnaissance and patrol vehicles are being adapted to the "Amulets".
