الخلفية
Ukraine already has ground-based space infrastructure and specialised institutions, including the National Space Devices Control and Testing Centre. Its Ministry of Defence has established a space policy directorate responsible for infrastructure audits, regulatory development, defence satellite launches and integrating space systems into military technologies. The Armed Forces already use optical-electronic imaging, radar imaging and radio-technical reconnaissance services supplied by state and private companies. Ukraine has space projects with Luxembourg, Poland, Czechia and Sweden, participates in the Artemis programme, and uses satellite imagery and space-domain monitoring tools. Ukrainian structures reportedly conducted at least three tests of systems for intercepting missiles in near space.
