Before that, starting from February 1, 2022, the system of remuneration of the Armed Forces of Ukraine underwent significant changes. However, today, the national system mainly consists of salaries by military ranks, official salaries and additional types of salaries. At the same time, very often the number and share of additional types of salaries prevails in the composition of monetary allowance, which contradicts of its principles – transparency of its calculation. Therefore, given the current military, political and economic conditions, it is important to study the current system of monetary support of the AFU military personnel and to identify areas for its improvement in accordance with NATO standards.
