Ukrainian Council of Defence Industry (UCDI) is the consolidated voice of Ukraine’s defence industry. We unite the country’s leading associations and unions of manufacturers of weapons and military equipment, providing a single, reliable platform for cooperation with government, the Armed Forces and international partners. Our mission is to strengthen Ukraine’s defence capability, ensure technological independence, and integrate Ukrainian companies into Euro-Atlantic supply chains.
What we do for partners:
• Single front door to vetted, battle-proven suppliers.
• B2B/B2G matchmaking, co-production and localisation in the EU and Ukraine; standing up MRO and service centres.
• Compliance & export readiness support: standards, certification, end-user docs.
• Market intelligence and joint presence at international exhibitions
Priority domains: UAVs and EW, C2/C4ISR, robotics, sensors and radars, demining (incl. sea), ground platforms and components, training/simulation, cyber/AI.
Let’s meet at MSPO to explore cooperation — from licensing and joint lines to R&D pilots and long-term service models.

ZBROYA (from the Ukrainian word «зброя», meaning “arms” / “weapons”) is Ukraine’s unified national brand for the defence industry, introduced by the President of Ukraine on 25 February 2025.

The brand brings together the Armed Forces, government institutions, state and private manufacturers, incubators and accelerators, universities, R&D centres, and volunteer communities into a single, coordinated ecosystem.

ZBROYA positions the defence sector as a strategic industry of national importance and gives it a shared identity and language for cooperation with international partners. It helps allies, investors, and buyers quickly navigate Ukraine’s battle-proven solutions; supports co-production, localisation; and streamlines engagement across standards, certification, and compliance.

ZBROYA is the common platform that aligns Ukraine’s defence innovators with global partners—so collaboration moves faster, smarter, and at scale.
