Ukraine launches TrophyLab, turning captured Russian weapons into a battlefield R&D platform
Today, the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense is launching the TrophyLab platform - a secure space that provides verified users with access to information on modern Russian weapon systems. The new TrophyLab initiative gives defence companies, researchers, and allied governments unprecedented access to Russian military technology to accelerate countermeasure development.

With this, Ukraine is opening a unique repository of real-world adversary technology to trusted partners, creating a battlefield-tested R&D resource unlike anything currently available in most Western defence ecosystems.
- Through the Trophylab platform, Ukraine will provide its partners with access to Russian technologies.
Companies, research institutions, and governments in the free world will be able to conduct in-depth studies of Russian missiles and other weapons.
- Several modes of sample analysis are available, from non-destructive inspection to testing that involves full disassembly or destruction of the system.
This enables engineers to test their solutions on real enemy equipment and significantly shorten the development cycle for countermeasures.
- Companies developing anti-drone systems, electronic warfare tools, autonomous platforms, sensors, and other military capabilities will be able to study the vulnerabilities of real Russian equipment and test their own solutions against it.
- What was meant to be their secret advantage is being turned into open knowledge for those defending democracy.

With this, Ukraine is opening a unique repository of real-world adversary technology to trusted partners, creating a battlefield-tested R&D resource unlike anything currently available in most Western defence ecosystems. Since the beginning of the full-scale war, Ukrainian military personnel, scientific institutions, and research centres have been analysing captured equipment. They study components, technological solutions, and vulnerabilities to develop effective countermeasures more quickly.
That knowledge is now being made available to those working to strengthen defence capabilities. Through the Trophylab platform, Ukraine will provide its partners with access to Russian technologies. Companies, research institutions, and governments in the free world will be able to conduct in-depth studies of Russian missiles and other weapons.
