- said the pipe.

He clarified that we are talking about bulletproof vests 1-4-th protection classes Corsair MZs-1-4 ", which do not meet the stated requirements.

I will name the results of one of the examinations. This is a ballistic examination. According to its results, it was established that more than 70% of bulletproof vests are shot through by the types of weapons from which they must protect

        And where is it indicated that "under the new government"? The period of the purchase is not known. It may well be that they bought "then" and they were bloated now. Although under the new government it may well be. How is it better than the old one? Nothing.

          So after all, both authorities knew very well that the main "aggressor" was not going to shoot in the near future, so why not "earn extra money" from that !?

            Take a calculator.
            176 million hryvnia, 20 thousand body armor. Total one bulletproof vest, when purchasing in bulk, to the native state (and the army does not pay taxes when purchasing) - 8800 hryvnias apiece.
            And now we climb to sales sites. How much does the corsair MZs body armor cost, at retail with all taxes ... Op-pa ... 5000 hryvnia ...

          Quote from Wiki:
          In 2011-2013, 150 Korsar-M3 bulletproof vests were delivered to the Ukrainian army [4], however, after the outbreak of hostilities in eastern Ukraine in the spring of 2014, the needs of the Ukrainian army in personal protective equipment increased. In May 2014, the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine placed an order for the purchase of 24 thousand “Corsair” bulletproof vests [5].

            Old anecdote:
            In the city square, a siren is heard from a loudspeaker and the voice of the announcer announces in a serious tone: "Citizens! Ukrainians! Today at 6 o'clock in the morning the armed forces of the Russian Federation treacherously attacked our country! The war has begun!"

            An official and a worker are standing under the loudspeaker. The official laments: "Lord! How many problems this war brings! Now it will be necessary to urgently punch seats on the train for his wife and children, and send them to evacuation. Then agree on a freight car, load everything acquired by back-breaking labor into it, and send the carriage to evacuate to his wife. Then get a ticket for himself on the train and go to his wife and children. "

            The worker says, "Yes. War brings a lot of problems."

            The official, looking at the worker in surprise: "What problems can you have ?! He took the machine gun to the front!"

                  hi , Paul.
                  Reminded me of a picture from the USSR.
                  At the bazaar, a shabby little man sells potatoes (about 5 kilograms and not the first freshness). A buyer approaches: "Ottel potato?"
                  Little man: "From the Eagle".
                  Buyer: "Well, Orlovsky, are you so fucking yourself?"
                  A peasant: "And we have a gouging head (here I softened the characteristic - 4" bans "in a nickname)".
                  As for the ruin, to put it mildly, blunders, I have long ceased to be surprised at them, more worried about our blunders no less significant and no less frequent (which, in general, confirms that we are from the same nest). And it would be necessary to "thoroughly".

        The jury acquitted Major General Valery Znakhurko. According to investigators, he helped director of a commercial company, Tatyana Romanova, sell bulletproof vests to Russian military units in the North Caucasus that easily pierced fragments and pistol bullets. The jury decided that the guilt of Znakhurko and Romanova was not proven, and the general was released directly from the courtroom.


        The same thing happened in Russia. Only for this crime no one answered.

      In Russia, we had the same thing, several tens of thousands of bulletproof vests were delivered to Chechnya which weren’t even a bullet, they didn’t even keep fragments.

      The criminal case incidentally ended then - NOTHING.

      According to the investigation, Znakhurko, who in 1999 worked as the head of the supply department of the Main Rocket and Artillery Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, received from the command the task of finding a company - a supplier of body armor and concluding an agreement with her. The vests that the general was supposed to buy for the military were intended for officers and soldiers of the Ground Forces participating in hostilities in the North Caucasus.

      Znakhurko concluded an agreement with ZAO Artess, co-owner of which was Romanova. According to the investigation, until the general order was received, this multidisciplinary company was not engaged in sewing body armor, but after the conclusion of the contract a special workshop was created there.

      Romanova and Znakhurko supplied military units with bulletproof vests for six years - until 2005. Manufacturers making one vest cost a little more than 200 rubles.

      According to investigators, due to the actions of Znakhurko and Romanova, the state budget missed 203 million rubles. Of these, 110 million were spent on the manufacture of vests, and 93 million were accused by the accused.

      In 2005, military investigators decided to conduct an independent examination, checking several vests from a party that entered one of the SKVO units. Bullets and splinters pierced the armor through, and after more extensive checks from the warehouses seized 14 thousand body armor manufactured by Artess. The general was removed from office, in 2006 he resigned from the army, and at the end of 2008 was taken into custody.

      The jury decided that the guilt of Znakhurko and Romanova was not proven, and the general was released directly from the courtroom.
