Ukraine will buy French helicopters instead of producing their own

88
The Ukrainian Foreign Ministry said that Kiev intends to sign a framework agreement with France on the purchase of helicopters, thereby actually recognizing the inability of the current Ukrainian government to organize its own production, although loud statements about this have been heard repeatedly.

Ukraine will buy French helicopters instead of producing their own




This was announced by Foreign Minister Klimkin at a joint press conference with French Foreign Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian, reports Apostrof. Relevant documents may be signed soon.

According to the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine, referenced by lb.ua, we are talking about 55 Airbus Helicopters helicopters, and the first cars should arrive this year. The cost of the purchase is not called, but judging by the number, we are talking about hundreds of millions of euros.

Helicopters are also intended for “anti-terrorist and special missions, border security”.

The intention to make a large purchase of helicopters is in no way combined with the statements of Ukraine about plans to engage in its own helicopter industry.

    Buy or beg? Two questions, for what money (or did the chieftain have more gold?), And the second, at whose expense will the service be? In general, I am interested in whose account the banquet is and who will pay it?

        Ukraine covered itself with a copper basin.
        Ukrainians still believe that they feed the whole of Russia? laughing
        Will they ever understand that they were bred like suckers? Understand that for the Anglo-Saxons there is no Ukraine? There is a part of the land that they (English-speaking creatures) cut off from Russia.
        And people living there can call themselves whatever they like, even Ukrainians, even lunatics. It was important to tear off from Russia and kill the industry.

        And the next will be the Germans. Grandma will play in democracy. The British are bent by the German cancer and the entire EU in their person.

          Understand what they have long understood. But who would ask them? Ukraine has long understood the essence of Western policy towards them. Only the "lower classes" do not want to do or cannot, and the "upper circles" work according to someone else's plan for personal gain, hoping that they will be able to escape from the country in time. I do not think that businessman billionaire Poroshenko does not understand what kind of "income" his activities bring. I think that his actions are intentional, only his goal is not the welfare of the country, but the deepening of the split between Russia and Ukraine.

          It seems to me that Teresa also plays by the rules of others. They themselves are bent by those who are not seen on TV and in the media. We are dealing here with the international "deep state". And all the machinations of recent years - the Olympics, fallen Boeing, Ukraine, chemical attacks, ISIS and so on, pawns on the same board in the same game, where we play for ourselves, and DS - against us. And in this game there are no rules, but the bet is existence itself.

      All that Ukraine allegedly “begged” is actually paid at a price.
      For deliveries of decommissioned rubbish from the USA, for example, the country's gold reserve “for storage” was sent in the opposite direction. The remains of state. assets, non-profitable trade agreements are signed .... the damage from such actions at times exceeds the cost of “gifts from friends”.

    Nothing else can be. Ukraine does not have its full production cycles of high-tech products. Everything worked only in cooperation with Russia (the legacy of the USSR). Nobody needs Ukrainian stubs of high-tech industries and will completely die in the next decade. Some earlier, others later. That is precisely the goal of the US and the EU.

          And how much fat did you sell?

          exported 4900 tons of pork, while imports amounted to 5600 tons ...
          The last 40 kilos of fat were sold in the Russian Federation in 2016 ... laughing
          Sausage production is growing (53 thousand tons of industrial fat were imported)
          but they sold only 32 thousand tons of fat ... judging by orders, the difference will grow. Industrial fat is in price. The usual household plots are only enough for markets.

    So Ukraine could not produce helicopters. To do this, at least you need a helicopter design bureau, and in Ukraine and Antonov’s genitive design bureau, it’s breathing well.

    Ukraine covered itself with a copper basin.
    Ukrainians still believe that they feed the whole of Russia? laughing
    Will they ever understand that they were bred like suckers? Understand that for the Anglo-Saxons there is no Ukraine? There is a part of the land that they (English-speaking creatures) cut off from Russia.
    And people living there can call themselves whatever they like, even Ukrainians, even lunatics. It was important to tear off from Russia and kill the industry.

    And the next will be the Germans. Grandma will play in democracy. The British are bent by the German cancer and the entire EU in their person.

    Do not sign for all Ukrainians. I do not think so. And there are many like me.

    News from 404 is encouraging. It is better to have horses with batons as enemies than horses with their own aircraft, tanks and artillery. Faithful dear gallop, brothers!

    "Helicopters are intended, inter alia, for" anti-terrorist and special missions, border protection "..." It is somehow difficult to imagine the participation of these machines in "anti-terrorist missions." In the summer of 2014, the Ukrainian "crocodile" valnuli in Lugansk. And these devices will generally be strewed like the needles of a Christmas tree on May XNUMX. Here are the "special missions" there to fly on a picnic, it's quite fishing.

    In Ukraine, there is Motor Sich and the engines they produce are left with the Antonovites to make a breakthrough - create your own helicopter. , but clowns like Klimkin grown on western yeast can only be named after the Sikorsky airport. The West does not need a high-tech country; they need a territory where reason is enough only to sing blacks and Chaldeans greetings. and join NATO, spitting on the graves of millions of killed Russian soldiers who recaptured this territory from the Western military, which was headed by Hitler. I remember Yanukovych bought Agusta AW39 for himself, it’s clear that there are no traffic jams when he goes to work with his dacha, but why? Only to kick a penny on himself. Just creatures.

    Attempts to produce helicopters in Ukraine were ongoing.
    There are MS, and Softex-Aero, and a couple more companies.
    I liked the VV-2 in its unmanned project.
    This news is not about military at all .... The whole burden of military operations is still on mi 24 and mi 8 (well, sea kamov)
