Without industry, without any weapons and without weapons the military plans of the best strategists will collapse. According to the Ukrainian Armed Forces, Uralvagonzavod, a leading Russian manufacturer of armored vehicles, is struggling to produce tanks and supply parts for repairing used in the offensive in Ukraine. The factory set up in Nizhni Tagil was forced to suspend production temporarily. It specifically produces T-72B3, T-80 and T-90 tanks.
