Workers in the engine assembly shop at the Motor Sich Works company in Zaporizhia, Ukraine. This plant of 10,000 workers and specialists makes some of the most advanced fighter jet and helicopter engines in the world.
The major buyer was Russia, but that market ended with the war in 2014. A persistent problem is that the West is hesitant to invest-in and buy Motor Sich products, so the company is now forced to do business with China.
