Abstract

The main purpose of reforming and development of the defense industrial sector (DIS) in Ukraine today is defining and implementing methods, stages and mechanisms of transforming the DIS enterprises into the structures able to ensure compliance with the tasks of supplying the Armed Forces with modern types of weapons and equipment. The subject’s topicality is determined by the role and by the place occupied by the national defense-industrial sector (DIS) in the national economy. DIS used to be, undoubtedly, one of the best achievements of the USSR. Early in the 90's, euphoria prevailed about the universality and omnipotence of the market methods of management, that most painfully reflected on this particular high-tech sector of the economy. Once in the free market environment, it was on the verge of destruction and death. For many years the national weapons market has virtually disappeared. The volume of our presence in the world arms market has reduced several-fold. Integration of the national defense industry into the market economy is the inevitable strategic way of the DIS development.
