Development of the Ukrainian BTR-4 started in the early 2000s after the full completion of BTR-94 fielding in 1999. The first prototype was displayed in 2006, and accepted for military service by Ukraines Ministry of Defense in 2008. One such factory that produced vehicles for the Soviet Union during WW2 but now creates unique Ukrainian tanks is the Kharkiv Morozov Machine Building Design Bureau in service since 1927 and Kiev Armored Plant that has been around since 1935.
Fellow history nerds will immediately recognize the KMDB as the company that designed the T-34 which was the backbone of the Soviet tank force in WWII. Is it ironic or coincidence that they are now creating weapons to fight against the Russian army? The Kharkiv Morozov manufactures the BTR4 but from what I could gather on open source intelligence about modern Ukraines armored vehicle production it seems like maybe only the Malyshev Factory in Kharkiv is still operating.
