From: Euromaiden — In 2023, Ukraine produced 300,000 drones. By 2024, that number soared to 4 million.
The game-changer? An innovative Danish initiative that channels Western aid directly to Ukraine’s defense industry.
The results have been striking:
🔹 Bohdana howitzers delivered in 60 days at $2.5mn per unit (vs. years of wait time and $4.3mn price tags from EU manufacturers)
🔹 Domestic firms now supplying 30% of Ukraine’s military equipment (up from <10% pre-invasion)
🔹 300,000 Ukrainians employed in defense sector (nearly half the EU’s entire defense workforce)
🔹Ukraine churned out 25 times more artillery and mortar rounds in the first half of 2024 than in all of 2022
As more allies explore the “Danish model,” Ukraine is positioning itself to become Europe’s arsenal – if it can secure victory.
