US military analyst: Kyiv cannot produce Patriot missiles
An American military expert confirmed that Ukraine will never be able to produce Patriot missile systems because of its inability to assemble all the components, including the rare earth materials that China will not sell to either the United States or Ukraine. He pointed out that developing and manufacturing this system requires integrated production involving about forty contractor companies, which is impossible without the technology provided by the manufacturing countries. Although there is a possibility of granting Kyiv a license to produce the system, this would not change the reality on the ground. He explained that Washington has recently resumed purchasing old-generation Patriot missiles to compensate for stock shortages, while Moscow continues to stress that Western weapon supplies to Ukraine complicate peace efforts and escalate tensions.
