Hi. Imported from Ukraine? There is a civil war going on there. Not possible.
Not exactly true. While their defence industry is taking a hit the Ukraine is still exporting, largely to nations that have or continue to field Soviet systems .
Ukrainian companies were present and Ukraine itself had a booth to sell its wares at IDEX 2015
