Ukrainian information resources reported on the use of 152-mm artillery shells at the front by the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU), allegedly produced at enterprises of the Ukrainian military-industrial complex.

These ammunition have a yellow-lemon color and the marking OF-25T. They are positioned as analogues of the Soviet 152-mm projectile 3OF25 (OF-25, which is used for D-20 and 2C3 howitzers.

The fact that Ukrainian enterprises have established the production of such shells, at the end of November 2022, was reported by the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine. However, no real confirmation of this statement was made. The Minister of Defense of Ukraine Alexey Reznikov then stressed that Kiev does not plan to produce 155 mm shells used by Western-made artillery pieces. They are still expected to receive them in Ukraine as military assistance from Western states.

However, it is possible that the ambitious statements of the Ukrainian media that the shells are produced by enterprises of the Ukrainian military-industrial complex may not correspond to reality. It is likely that the manufacturer of the shells is still located outside of Ukraine.

Recently, the process of not only repairing Soviet-made Ukrainian military equipment, but also the production of "Soviet-type" ammunition has been established at the enterprises of a number of Eastern European countries. First of all, we are talking about industrial enterprises of the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Bulgaria, Poland, which have certain production capabilities for the production of such ammunition.
