Sorry, De.
But it seems a LOT of 'military grade manufacturing'
Russia used to depend on was in Ukraine. And I seem
to remember reading something about Marine Engines
(Made in Ukraine) that were not supposed to be sold

Ukraine's defense industry was a major part of the Soviet defense industry, responsible for 30% of Soviet defense production and 40% of its scientific research. Most Soviet ICBMs were actually built at the Yuzhmash plant in the Ukrainian city of Dnipro. Russia's only aircraft carrier was also built in the Ukrainian SSR, as well as a number of other Russian military ships.

I hope you're wrong. I still see Ukraine as a big wheat field that nobody SHOULD care that much about. Putin only cares about it because if it joined NATO, American bases would be next to parts of Russia that Putin actually does care about - much the way we'd care if we saw Russian military bases springing up on the opposite bank of the Niagara River.
