Книга «The Weapons of World War III. Ukrainian Experience». Автор - Роман Романюк

Foreword by Valerii Zaluzhnyi, Ukraine’s Ambassador to the United Kingdom, Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (2021–2024) Journalist Roman Romaniuk delves into Ukraine’s defence sector, revealing the stories behind its most iconic military innovations: the Neptune missile, which sank the Moskva warship; the naval drones that made the Crimean Bridge tremble in dread; the Bohdana self-propelled howitzer, which drove Russian forces from Zmiinyi (Snake) Island; the Baba Yaga bombers — and other weapons until recently unknown to the wider world. The Weapons of World War III: Ukrainian Experience is the first book to chart modern Ukrainian armaments and their evolution from bold ideas to groundbreaking innovations — technologies reshaping not only the course of the Russo-Ukrainian war, but ultimately the very future of the world. * Longlist of the KBU AWARDS 2025 * Foreword by Valerii Zaluzhnyi, Ukraine’s Ambassador to the United Kingdom, Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (2021–2024) * This book is a comprehensive guide to the history of the Ukrainian military, its evolution, and the challenges it continues to face. * The English edition of the book was initiated and made possible by the Ukrainian Council of Defence Industry. * Compiled from articles by Roman Romaniuk for Ukrainska Pravda.
