A few companies will avoid testing in Ukraine because they know they will fail. There already is a bunch of systems that already haven't survived the conditions.

Examples-

Excalibur m982 guided artillery shell. Russia got so good at jamming them that less than 1 in 9 hit the target. At almost $100k per shell they are a massive waste of money.

Anduril Industries and Skudio haabe failed massively with their drones in Ukraine.
