The Ministry of Defense of Ukraine has received more than 650 registration applications for its unified research portal for captured adversary hardware, known as TrophyLab.
Among these requests, 389 applications have come from foreign manufacturers of military equipment and weaponry. Registration on the portal is also accessible to Ukrainian manufacturers, military units, and government institutions, according to the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine.
We bring you stories from the ground. Your support keeps our team in the field.
TrophyLab gathers unique information regarding captured Russian military hardware to support engineers, scientists, and defense technology producers from Ukraine and partner nations.
The database is actively populated by units of the Defense Forces of Ukraine, the Main Directorate of Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense, the Security Service of Ukraine, and specialized scientific institutions.
Every registered researcher has the opportunity to submit a request to receive a sample or its physical fragment for independent evaluation.
According to the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, access to TrophyLab enables faster and secure information sharing regarding Russian hardware to accelerate the creation of effective countermeasures for the Defense Forces of Ukraine.
The development comes as Russia continues introducing new weapons into its arsenal. Ukrainian military technology expert and defense adviser Serhii Flash said on July 14 that Russia has begun deploying the low-cost, highly maneuverable Banderol cruise missile, although production has yet to reach the planned rate of 120 missiles per month.
According to Flash, achieving that production target would allow Russia to launch an average of four Banderol missiles per day. However, he said the manufacturing facility has not yet reached the required output. The missile is launched from airborne platforms, primarily the Orion medium-altitude, long-endurance unmanned aerial vehicle.
