Quote: "It's really important because we're in a club of nations that when we get hold of Russian kit or other nations' kit that might be a danger to us in the future, we share that knowledge," Radakin pointed out.

Details: He said that the UK has scientists who examine the parts of the vehicles like forensic experts.

"…That helps us to understand: how does their equipment work? How can we defeat it? How can we have even better armour? How can we disrupt their communications? How can we ensure that we can penetrate their defences? And that's what we do," he stated.
