Nearly 200 Foreign Defense Firms Register for Ukraine’s Captured Russian Weapons Database

Ukraine’s Ministry of Defense says its TrophyLab portal has received more than 300 registration requests since launch, including nearly 200 from foreign defense firms in partner countries. The platform is a controlled database for studying captured Russian weapons, offering registered users technical drawings, component analyses, and laboratory findings. Applicants are screened to ensure they have no ties to Russia and comply with sanctions and security requirements. Foreign companies can also request access to equipment samples or fragments for independent examination, aimed at speeding up countermeasures.
