Estonian Defense Firms Face Hurdle: Ammunition Testing Abroad
Estonian defense companies face a hurdle as they are compelled to test their ammunition abroad, with options limited to Poland or Sweden. This situation has persisted despite discussions to set up a local testing laboratory in Estonia for over seven years.
The lack of a domestic testing facility forces Estonian companies to incur additional expenses and time for international travel. The idea of establishing a testing laboratory in Estonia was first mooted over seven years ago. However, the high maintenance costs have hindered its implementation. Despite the prolonged discussion, no concrete timeline has been found for when the establishment of an analysis laboratory was initially proposed in Estonia.
The absence of a local testing laboratory in Estonia continues to impact its defense industry. The high maintenance costs remain a significant barrier to setting up such a facility, despite the ongoing need and the prolonged discussion on the issue.
