Oh, I agree. It's bound to happen.Ukraine is ultra-corrupt. It'll be interesting to see how many stinger's the U.S. gives end up on the arm's black market.
But Ukraine has a mature mil manufacturing sector already. They make some very modern systems. If you look at some of the Stugna videos, you will notice the display is sometimes in arabic. Those units were meant to be exported to Saudi Arabia (the war interrupted).
And damn, they shot down 2 KA-52's with it, so if we don't give them any more stingers they can just use their ATGM's, lol.
