2018
Product Synopsis
This report is the result of SDI's extensive market and company research covering the Ukrainian defense
industry, and provides detailed analysis of both historic and forecast defense industry values including key
growth stimulators, analysis of the leading companies in the industry, and key news.
Introduction and Landscape
Why was the report written?
The Future of the Ukrainian Defense Industry - Market Attractiveness, Competitive Landscape and Forecasts
to 2018 offers the reader an insight into the market opportunities and entry strategies adopted by foreign
original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) to gain market share in the Ukrainian defense industry.
What is the current market landscape and what is changing?
Ukraine, Europe's second-largest country, is anticipated to invest US$22.7 billion to strengthen its armed
forces during the forecast period. The country's total defense expenditure, which recorded a CAGR of 4.26%
during the review period, is expected to record a CAGR of 20% over the forecast period. This expected
increase is primarily the result of the country's security and defense forces transformation strategy adopted by
Ukraine in 2013. The first phase of the defense transformation extends upto 2017 and the second phase upto
2023. Other factors contributing to the increase in defense expenditure are growing tension between Ukraine
and Russia, the modernization of existing weapon systems, and participation in international peacekeeping
missions. Also, as a percentage of GDP, Ukraine's defense expenditure is expected to increase from 1.05% in
2013 to 2.4% by 2018, in accordance with the country's security and defense transformation strategy. The
country's homeland security expenditure is projected to record a CAGR of 8.11% over the forecast period, a
consequence of an increase in organized crime and maritime security threats.
What are the key drivers behind recent market changes?
Conflict with Russia, military modernization, and the upgrade of existing systems to drive defense
expenditure.
What makes this report unique and essential to read?
Reform and development program of the armed forces, tensions with Russia, acquisition of new military
hardware systems, and participation in peacekeeping missions expected to drive Ukrainian defense
expenditure.

domestic and foreign, together with insights such as key alliances, strategic initiatives, and a brief financial
analysis.
Key Market Issues
Although Ukraine is expected to invest a total of US$22.7 billion in its armed forces over the forecast
period, an average of 19.2% of this total is expected to be invested in the modernization of the country's
defense equipment, limiting the opportunities available for both foreign OEMs and domestic defense
companies. Additionally, despite Ukraine offering skilled labor at a lower cost than the majority of European
countries, foreign OEMs are unable to make significant investments in the country's defense industry due to
the prohibition of FDI in defense. With the exception of the government's military modernization plans,
expansion of the country's domestic defense industry has been postponed in the wake of the global financial
crisis. This lack of commitment to defense innovation increases the reluctance of foreign investors to enter the
industry. However, the country has initiated a defense transformation program to be implemented in two
phases (upto 2017 and upto 2023) and UAH131 million (US$16.3 billion) has been allocated for the first
phase. The defense modernization plan is expected to increase Ukraine's market attractiveness in the coming
years. Despite possessing both a strong technological base and skilled labor, the Ukrainian defense industry
has so far been unable to produce modern technological hardware such as advanced fighter planes,
submarines, and warships. Instead, growth of the country's domestic defense industry has stalled as the
majority of reforms to modernize the country's defense industry have been postponed, while only 20% of
state-run programs for the development of the country's defense complex were implemented in 2010. In 2009,
the defense complex of Ukraine received very few orders and the country did not have the financial resources
to revamp its production facilities. Furthermore, in 2009, the Ukrainian government owed the domestic
defense industry US$400 million. As a result of these factors, Ukraine's domestic defense industry is unable to
improve its infrastructure and enhance its capabilities. Almost half of the country's defense facilities do not
fulfill modern strategic requirements and need revamping. However, in 2013, the country's defense industry
started to see profit. Ukraine's state defense holding company, UkrOboronProm, that unites 125 domestic
defense enterprises registered profits of US$51.2 million in the first half of 2013. Coupled with the budget
funding from the country's newly started defense transformation program, Ukraine may improve its defense
infrastructure in the forecast period.
Key Highlights
Reform and development program: Ukrainian defense expenditure is expected to driven by reform and
development program of its armed forces. The transformation of Ukraine's security and defense sector will be
implemented in two stages - the first stage up to 2017 and the second stage up to 2023. In 2013, the Ukrainian
Cabinet approved the Army reform state program 2013-2017, with an aim of transforming its defense forces
into a fully professional Army, similar to the modern European armed forces that are small in number but
well-trained and well-equipped. The Ukrainian Minister of Defense allocated UAH131 billion (US$16.3
billion) for reforms of the armed forces up to 2017. Ukraine plans to achieve its transformation goals by
reducing the number of personnel without compromising the country's fighting capacity. Ukraine is expected
to increase the fund allocation towards capital expenditure and training up to 2023. Organized crime: Criminal
activity such as the illegal drugs trade, human trafficking, robbery, thefts, murders, street crime, and
cybercrime is rapidly increasing in Ukraine. The crime situation in Ukraine is worsened due to corruption
within the government and insufficient law enforcement. Although Ukraine is not a major consumer or
producer of drugs, a large number of illegal substances are trafficked through the country to Central and

3. Western European countries such as Germany, France, Spain, and the UK. Before entering Ukraine, these
drugs are trafficked from Afghanistan and pass through Russia, the Caucasus, Turkey, Romania, Moldova, and
Poland. Drugs rings also commonly utilize Ukraine's seaports and rivers as part of the “Balkan
Route” for smuggling drugs into Western European countries. In order to control increasing levels of
drugs smuggling, the Ukrainian government is expected to invest in explosive detection systems (EDS)
including trace chemical detectors (TCD) capable of tracing drug residue, and machines with the capability to
screen items through the use of X-rays or millimetric wave imaging. As a direct consequence of the global
economic crisis, Ukrainian arms exports registered a decline in 2008-2009. However, in 2010, it regained
momentum and registered a 36% growth over 2009. During 2008-2012, the country's defense exports
registered a CAGR of 38.34%. Ukrspecexport, which is Ukraine's state-owned arms exporter, and its
subsidiaries saw sales increase by 2% over 2011 to value US$1.02 billion in 2012. As domestic procurement
is negligible, Ukraine's domestic defense industry is heavily dependent on arms exports. The country is
expected to export weapons worth more than US$5 billion over the forecast period.
